Of the three, I like the composition of this best, however I really like number one overall. Number two is a bit busy and dark/monochromatic, if I were cropping it, I would remove the bit of "undercarriage" on the bottom left corner.

Thanks to you all--Lydia, Mary Anne and peta--for your friendly comments.
Lydia: The image sure is noisy (due to my postprocessing of an originally underexposed picture); I enter it here, nevertheless, because I do--as you do--like this composition best.
peta: Never mind my "cutting my chances of winning": I am not too preoccupied about winning (as I said in a former challenge here: if I were, I'd have commited suicide long ago); showcasing my work in a coherent series like this one (please excuse my lack of modesty...) or seeing which image of such a group is preferred by my co-challengers are much more important to me. Thank you, anyway, for stating your concern on my behalf...
I love all 3 of your images and all of them are likely to make my shortlist...but... and here's the thing...I'll probably only vote for one of them. So I think that by posting 3 similar style images, that you are cutting your chances of winning. Am I alone in this thought?
