Default Which one?

I recently watched the new Harry Potter movie and was inspired to take a shot that had something to do with the phenomenon. Here are two edits of the same image. They are exactly the same, but the second has a border created by the airbrush tool on Gimp.

Which looks better?






Any other critique would be appreciated

Fujifilm finepix s1500
f stop - f3
Exposure time 1/60sec
ISO 400
Focal length 8mm

I dont care for the vignette. Altho I see why you did it, perhaps a less bold vignette

I prefer the 1st (no vignette). Maybe introduce some DOF.

I'm not a fan of the Vignette either.
