In the shadow

Sometimes being in the shadow gives you the chance to see the sun more clearly...
Which picture do you like the most?

And here is the Orton version:

The 2nd shot all the way for me!

I'm not sure which one MA likes but I prefer #2. the shadow and the starburst really work for me.

Sunburst one here, too. Without it the shot is a bit too static to hold my attention. With it the bit of serendipity adds magic.

If the Orton was part of the poll (why isn't it?) I would have chosen it.

Thank you all for the feed back...I am reading some interesting books about exposure, composition, PP and I am trying to shoot in various (back, front, side) lighting conditions.
I like the Orton version (was added later) the most.

I liked the Orton version as well but voted for the second which I like too!

I would have voted for the Orton version as well ... very nicely done

Thank you all again for voting and commenting.

I really go to read what I write more closely. My mind works so much faster than my fingers. The digits get left behind sometimes.
