Should the trees go or stay?

[batmura]

Any thoughts on this photo? What do you think about the trees in the foreground?

I have a different edit of the same scene with fewer trees. Any thoughts as to which one is better?

And here's the last one with a different skyline.

I like #1 & #2, but still undecided on #3. Maybe I don't like it much.

I like #2 best. The city looks better and the trees aren't so distracting.

I like your first photo the best! The trees should definitely stay. The blue and orange hues are so pretty.

The second photo is good too.. the colors are nice and the trees darker in this photo fits. The mood you have captured is very appealing to the eye. I like how you got a closer up of the cityscape.

The third photo seems too saturated and the lighting seems a little weird to me.
