Fairy and Balloons: Part II

I actually have quite a few more edited at this point but I’m really just trying to narrow it down to my favorites so that all you lovely people can help me decide which one(s) are really the best. I know, I’m bad. I need to learn to just chose one.

The middle one works the best for me. In that one, you've cropped out some of the things that in the others, are a bit distracting. Simple is better here I think. I kind of wish the balloons were entirely in the frame on the middle one, but that's only a small thing.

So would you say the middle one is your favorite so far from the two days?

Yes, I think so!

I agree with that, too. Middle = best so far. Yay ballooons!

There's a variation here I want to see... Probably won't work, but: I'd really like to see what these (particularly, actually the 3rd one) would look like if you desaturated (not to complete grey, necessarily) the red from the building, and perhaps from the wig as well, and lightened up the blacks (particularly the platform... Her dress and wings might be fine as they are) to more of a dark grey... Then do the opposite to the balloons, boosting contrast and saturation just a bit...

Just to be contrary: I'm actually most attracted to the third one, myself.
