As you say, OMMV, it is indeed matter of personal preference. Similar to Steven, I shot many images on 617 format, so I got conditioned to that format.
If you like negative space, you could convert the image even into a vertical image which would create plenty of negative space for some advertising text or another type of central composition.

I like this one too :).  Very flexible image apparently :)

Les that sure is an interesting idea. I didn't shoot this orientation. I think I am liking the pano format, but I think every image should be a pano.

Kevin I will look up the painter Arnold Alaniz. Thanks

I will post a new image today with Seven Trees - it is a pano.

Absolutely gorgeous, all of 'em.

So, for those lesser-endowed among us, is it MFD that enables such subtle tonality?

Peter

Thanks for the kind feedback. I think it is combination of things, including the fact that it is medium format with the outstanding Schneider lenses. But also, the processing the image through Capture One. The medium format files have incredibly smooth transitions in colours. I describe the images as smooth and sharp at the same time. the gradations of colours is really outstanding.

One thing I have noticed is the IQ4 150 back from Phase One has outstanding colour balance. I suspect it has to do with the Capture One inside the back.

Thanks Hugh. To be honest not much is done with the images in post. Pretty much straight out of Capture One. Mostly burning and dodging. The new WB is really good in the back.

Very lovely, both versions.
