I like the top one. Not taking up so much of the frame Tadpole Raisin Jun 28 #3

Thanks Tadpole Raisin. I tend toward perspective. I appreciate yours. George McGovern Jun 28 #11

Thx! I was photography and layout editor in college and Tadpole Raisin Jun 28 #14

I like the light and dark contrast in the second one. mwmisses4289 Jun 28 #4

Second. usonian Jun 28 #7

Thanks usonian. I like your non-ambivalence. George McGovern Jun 28 #15

Second one.... anciano Jun 28 #9

Thanks anciano. For looking and evaluating. George McGovern Jun 28 #16

I like both but I think I am leaning toward #2. I like the brown/white stripes on the first one LoisB Jun 28 #18

Thank You Lois. Well, if you get tired of leaning, feel free to sit down in the chair . . . George McGovern Jun 28 #19

LOL! Folks, George will be here all week; don't forget to tip your waitress. LoisB Jun 28 #20

1st 1 is a more interesting composition. mopinko Jun 28 #21

Thanks mopinko for viewing and replying. George McGovern Jun 28 #24

I think I like the second one better George. Diamond_Dog Jun 29 #25

Thanks Diamond_Dog! George McGovern Jun 29 #28

#2 is a better visual. In the first pic, the top left triangular shadow is a distraction. DUU Jun 29 #26

Thanks DUU. I appreciate your opinion. George McGovern Jun 29 #30

Focus on the chair and shadow... GiqueCee Jun 29 #27

Thanks so much GiqueCee. I think most everyone agrees with you. George McGovern Jun 29 #31

Definitely the second one. Phoenix61 Jun 29 #29

Thanks Phoenix61. I value your view. George McGovern Jun 29 #32
