I think you kind of have the same issue as your first one...not enough ground. The sliver that is there is not contributing much to the photo except as a distraction. Plus there is now a bit too much sky so the tree becomes a bit inconsequential. I think the tree needs to occupy at the very least 1/3 of the bottom of the image. With so little ground exposed, it can probably occupy at least 1/2.
Your last one was my pick of the two. Just need to add a bit more ground in that one.
