Which of these 3 boabs?
Just after some feedback, which of these 3 photos of the boab appeal to you most?
I've been looking at them too long and can't decide.
Thanks!

The close-up. This, IMHO, focuses my attention on the tree, and not the background, and also brings the moon more to the fore.

Yeah, No 3, the closest. Has everything.

I prefer the colour palate of the first one. Orange and blue - complementary opposites on the colour wheel. The moon is better placed in a richer coloured sky.

No 2 Mike the dryer looking background makes it look real Australian.

Hard to pick a winner.
I like number 3,
But I think number 1 is my pick.

It's a close call, as they all have something to offer. So, IMHO ...
The first is best framed and most symmetrical, and second-best colour rendition.
The second has the best colour rendition.
The third has the best position of the moon in shot, and the green adds a nice contrast.
I'd pick the first one if I had to.

No 1. It captures the full tree no branches missing. Like the darker shade too.

after a close race between 1 and 3. I think #1 won by a head in a photo finish.
