Which edit version to print (Page 2): My vote is the one that you think is best. If you think “aluminum with lighting might be the way to go” then do that. But remember I’m just some...

If you think “aluminum with lighting might be the way to go” then do that.

But remember I’m just some random guy on the internet. You are the photographer and you should make the decisions for what and how to print.

It appears to be a discussion about which one would be best to print.

Actually, this about 'appreciation'. Hence, GALLERY subject.

I like the first picture in each the most.

To everybody that responded, thanks for your input. I like 1 for it's drama, #2 for the colors, and #3 for being able to see the foreground, #4 is too dark over all, except for the sun rise. I will update all when I see #1 printed. Again thanks.

Your choice on the first image, whatever moves you.

I would not print the 2nd image, Numbers 3 & 4. They are both blurry with a lot of noise. I think you would be disappointed. Nobody has mentioned this yet, so I may be off, but that is my opinion.

I was going to choose #'s 1 & 3 until I read Kim's comments. So, now I'm going to amend my choice to only #1. I didn't observe closely enough to notice that it is too noisy.

First version of each image.

#1 and #3 catch my eye the most. However,
I would adjust the shadows a little.

#1 would look better cropped & #'s 3 & 4 have too much negative space.
