I like shot 1 by far. I might clone out the 1 cm of the tree that is raised on the mid right edge, but now we are gettin' niggly.

I will agree, I like number one better. I think the crop is better than number 2.

Number 1 for me too. The vignette helps the sky, which personally I think is too flat (and pink) in number 2,

I too prefer the first one.

I think if you reset the whites using levels or curves it would improve the 2nd shot. This is something that to me (and I emphasise TO ME) is a bit like fingernails on a blackboard. When adding toning I like to see the whites readjusted to white . Just my personal preference though.

Having said that, Mad Aussie picked up on one of my shots recently where I hadnt done what I just suggested.
