With or without Lensball?

[Lord Commander]

Here's with:

And here's without:

Without for me.............

Prefer the first, but I wish the focus was tighter on the ball.

 

[Jeff G]

Like them both for different reasons. I like the first because the sphere gives it a definate point of interest, but the second is sharp, if cropped some off of the top and bottom it would make a great panorama.

I’m liking the first one better.

Another vote for without but I don't hate the first one.

I can't decide, They're both totally different shots to me, I really like the first one, a creative take on what you can clearly see in the second is a super location to shoot. Both great shots but I guess it depends on what you're aiming for with the end result.. well done..

With the ball but much closer to the ball, with more of it filling the frame.
