Great interest, great comp Phil.
Really like this porch setting, and the tree BG as well..
I think the contrast's good in the original, but a subtle improvement in the repost. :wavey:

A neat candid take on this porch shot, Phil. I think the pop in the second one looks more to reality. Excellent color in both versions here. :cool:

I like both images Phil but think your repost is stronger. Strong composition and a nice warm scene.

Nuthin' like music on the front porch! I don't do images like this one, but the objects in the foreground prevent me from seeing his feet. The re-post has nicer pop.
