I just finished a few shots for a client and I have 2 versions of the same photo that I can't decide which to send to the printer for a poster for the clients wall.

I am close to a decision but, in true DP Challenge tradition, I thought I would put it too a vote :-D

Which one do you like better?

Version 1

OR

Version 2

Version 1 for me.

My opinion is version #1.
#2 seem a little too harsh for my taste.
Nice shot though!

I would choose number 2.
why:
The tree seems to come out better, and the sunflare isn't that bright.
Also the path is better.

1...love the sky.

Definitely #1. Much more depth and definition.

I like the first one better, but in both of them I think the flare is acting against, instead of adding something more. But I guess, you think otherwise.

I agree that without the lens flare, the photo has an even and subdued tone.

I think both ways work depending on your flavor.

The reason I played with the flare was because of the sun streaks being created through the tree and I wanted to show the connection to the flare.

There was also some fog/heavy moisture burning off in the recessed parts of the landscape I wished I could work with some more. I think with some gradients and careful dodges and burns I could really make this landscape even moodier.

Number 1. I feel the dark sky holds the eye from wandering to the right and out of the picture.

I like the first one better for some reason, but I think technically the second might be the better picture. The details are clearer.
12/06/2005 09:15:27 PM · #17
definitely #1
12/06/2005 09:21:23 PM · #18
Number 1
12/06/2005 09:30:08 PM · #19
#1 :-) Nice shot!
12/06/2005 09:32:01 PM · #20
I prefer #1

Wouldn't creating a poll for this question be much easier?
