Saw this scene and had to grab it. I'm curious as to which presentation has the most impact. Any and all comments are welcome.

#3 tells a far better story than the others.  I like it very much.

One more vote for number 3, as it eliminates almost all of the surrounding distractions.

I'd be tempted to clone out the sign post on the left, and crop the right just slightly to eliminate the slice of light color by the black lamp post at the top. Maybe even clone out the light colored triangle between the black lamp post and the sphere.

Number 3 Gary, to many distractions in the other two.

I prefer number 2 but cropped like the last one and with the post removed.

I guess that means you prefer the B&W treatment? OK, cool. I'm digging the colors more and more as I come back to this one. Pretty happy with it, but thank you for sharing!!

As I scroll down from photo number 1, to 2, to 3... I like what I see more.  Number 1 didn't jump out at me, 2 I liked and 3 tells the biggest story.
