Default Which would you enter?
Hi folks

I want to enter a photo in a contest run by a paper in London, the theme is 'Natural London' and split down into 3 categories: Rivers and streams, trees and woodlands, hidden gems.
None of these shots fit a category perfectly but the contest closes soon and I'm not going to be in London for the next couple of weeks, so I want to enter one just to give it a shot.
So which photo do you prefer, purely on the feel and technical aspects of the photo, not so much by the criteria.

Hoverfly on leaf

Grey Heron

Red Deer

Thanks a lot for any repsonses!

I voted for the fly but, if you could clone out the girl in the deer shot, I'd go with it.

I'm for the deer, too, but I would consider lightening up the shady area where the deer is, or at least the deer to make him pop out a little.
