Hi Nathan,

The main just doesn't seem to be a complete picture? As though the butt end
is chopped off or something like that, or maybe I want to see more of the
front end of the statue.

However, the alternate has far more going for it as a clean simple
composition and interesting photograph. So sorry mate, the alternate gets
the nod as the better of the two.
