The second one for me...

denum · Mar 16, 2024

Second one for sure. I tend to gravitate to bold colors.

10acres · Mar 16, 2024

Pic 2 is obviously more pleasing to the eye because of the vivid colors. Which pic is closer to the original?

Thiophilos · Mar 16, 2024

Second one.

Grandpa Ron · Mar 16, 2024

The second one because I like saturated colors over pastels.

ClintLloyd · Mar 16, 2024

Personally, neither. I'd like to see something in the middle.

snowbear · Mar 16, 2024

I would like more of an angle, but the second one.

Original katomi · Mar 17, 2024

Second one... ok it just border line on being too much for my taste but the second one. For me

davholla · Mar 17, 2024

The second one is more attractive but I prefer real and ugly to fake.

jeffashman · Mar 18, 2024

Another vote for the second one.

SunriseAvenue · Mar 19, 2024

Definitely the second one, I just feel like this pastel style doesn't do the rose justice. I'd rather do a black and white with color accent than turned it pastel tbh.

Thanks for all the replies.

For the record the second one is much closer to reality. Its a flower on some sort of bush in my garden, no idea what its called.

The preference for vivid colour is noted.
