Version 1 or version 2?

[swoosh]

Hi there!
I need your advice on this one. What's the version you most like? The version 2 is cropped at the left which eliminates the distraction of that line. But when It's cropped I think the photo looses that powerful diagonal line that gives strength to the shot... What's your choice?




Version 1



Version 2

Thanks in advance for your help.

version 2 is better imo...

i feel that both have an excess of space at the bottom though... but i assume it was composed that way on purpose.

[swoosh]

Thank you. The amount of space at the bottom was on pourpose.
Anyone else want to give your opinion?

I like the line of the curb in the first one, however, I think there wanted to be more space showing to the left of the curb for it to work. So out of these 2 I would have to go with version 2.

I think you would have had a much better shot as mentioned if you could have included a little more of the curb area to the left in the first picture. That being said pic 2 is the best.

[swoosh]

Yes. I agree with guys. But with this final shot I also go for the option #2.

I kind of thought something had gone wrong with the jpg in version 1 because of it pretty much only being the leaves and in so small of an area. So I prefer version 2's crop.

I like version 2 better and I don't think that you lose the dramatic diagonal line.
