Which do you like better? I know the focus isn't perfect (hand held and I vibrate like an energy bunny) but I'd like feedback on what you think of the composition. This is an exercise in color.

I like the uncrossed shot much better because it shows context. It helps me understand the subject and is of greater interest. The mass of red will catch the eye in any case and uncropped it tells more of the about the place where you found this nice shot.

"Uncrossed" is a dumb typo or something Orwellian in my computer. I meant uncropped, but spell check on my computer seems to not like that word, as I just discovered:).
I was tempted to crop the first one even a little more, so I did....the dark area on the right didn't seem to be adding much for me. I also darkened up the lower right hand corner a little.
larduggan nailed the composition IMO, and the reason for the trim. Now, there's a better flow from lower right to upper left. This is a study of light and shadow as much as color - terrific!
