The color is much better in the second image.

Elegant mix of color and texture.

The top left 25% would work better without all of that carefully stacked wood in the foreground. This would be one of those cases where less is more.

I don't mean to insult the young lady, but her image is blurred compared to the elephant and she looks unhappy to be there. My eye is drawn to her instead of the elephant and therefore I'm not enjoying what would have been an interesting shot of an elephant.

This was a good idea and should have worked. The sky is blue and I can't help thinking that I would rather see more of the scenic beauty than a lighting trick. I think that this kind of shot works best in an urban setting.
