    First choice would be 1. Then 2. Then 4. Then 3. Not a fan a constructed symmetry.

    I think 1 is well balanced and displays a wide range of colors while accentuating the underlying structures and evoking the feeling that the image is of a mysterious but living thing.

    All the images however, are amazing and convey the complexity and beauty of life. Plus they are super-awesome (tm).

  7. I see a great Georgia O’Keefe thing happening with the second image. Close ups, just as pretty and potentially more captivating than the original. Plus symmetry is over-rated.
