Hi guys,

I actually posted an image (composition) on the "Clarity and Diffuse" contest.

Here it is:

425832430_zLfUj-L.jpg

However, I'm thinking that maybe this other one is more appropriate for the theme,
since it shows both: clarity and diffuse in the same time. (This is also a composition
of my 2 photos taken at the same date):

424417079_9KcWu-L-1.jpg

I received good comments on both at the "photo of the day" community

Would you please help me to decide which one should I go with? :scratch

Thank you,

    For me, the first one.thumb.gif Much more artistic, imo. While I like the idea of divided clarity/diffuse and the windscreen wiper, the wires, poles and not that photogenic view out the window weaken the idea.

    I like #2...what a nice idea and composition...I would although clone out the Pole/Wires and just leave the nice landscape...I might also add a touch of contrast, hit it with some selective color, and a play on curves.

    Good Luck.

    like #1
    I prefer #1. It's more abstract and more interesting to me.
    Nice shots!
