Either? Neither? Thanks!

I like the first one.  The light isn't working for me on the second.

Agreed.

I actually prefer the second.  Something to do with the balance.  I also think that you seem to be moving toward more subtle light and a more gentle rendering?  There is a lot of room to explore there.

I think both are worth while.

The first features the hoodoos as "spectators" of the scene very nicely, while the second seems to be more about the mountain.

I would be tempted to liven up the processing a little in the second.

The second composition has much potential.

OK, I'll go back to this. I thought #2 might have too many elements. Might work as a large print with much to look at.

Thanks to all.
