Which one do you prefer?

[LaFoto]

The 70mm version?

Or th wide angle with the fence at the bottom?

And do they "speak" to you in any way at all?

Edit:
I really, really, really would have preferred to see them both the same size here for comparison reasons. Thanks to Photobucket they are not :x ...

#1 for me Lafoto - and it 'speaks' to me of the long hot summer of 1976....

I like the second one. The fence in the foreground adds interest to the scene and holds my attention longer.

I like the second one better. It gives a nice framing effect.

I like the second one best. The fence adds alot to the photo yet doesn't take away from the feel of the distance. : )

I think I like the second, but without the fence. The sky is wonderful, but I find the hard lines a bit too much. And, just as a personal preference, I don't like using something man-made so prominently in such a natural setting UNLESS it has a great deal of... ummm... character.

Beautiful country. I can imagine taking a nap under one of those trees.

im going with the second without the fence. in a scene like this, i want to view the expanse of the image. i imagine leaning on the fence and taking it all in; i could lean and listen for hours. as it is, the fence distracts me from doing so in the image. nice shot btw.

I also think the second one without the fence. Try just cropping out the fence, I bet it would make a really nice panoramic.

[font=&quot]#2 without fence, personally I like the fake panoramic look, so I would crop the bottom haft off.[/font]

LaFoto.. the second one is much better for me the first one might seem a bit boring for some ppl while in the second you concentrated on a subject. the first one would e wonderful during the sunset, or with different light conditions.
