Date Palms waiting for harvest

I previously posted an 8 x 10 similar to this, but wanted to try the 8 x 20. What do you think?

Dan, I didn't remember the 8x10 shot until you reminded me, I went and had a look at it and I think it is the stronger of the two. This is alright, but the lighting and closeness of the 8x10 is more compelling to look at.

I suppose if you leave this for a while then possibly re-print it when you are in a different frame of mind, it may come out completely differently and surprise you.

Mick.
 
I prefer the 8x10 composition. This is just a bit too loose or something.
 
Ah! So this is how they keep the Norwegian roof rats from eating the dates. We have a date palm in our back yard, but never a date to eat.

Nice composition, by the way.
