Number two for me by far. I think that the texture and solidity of the rocky
land is enhanced and the additional ocean to the left does not add much for
me. In this size it appears to soften to that edge also. A bonus in the crop
is that it removes the contrail that is against the cloud softness. I'm not
sure that the horizons are 'off', rather there is visible curvature. That is
correctable of course (and I would, as discussed off-list).
I'd be honoured to hang ANY version myself. Gorgeous work.

Cheers
Geoff
