Spar Shed Two

Which do you prefer, Spar Shed or Spar Shed Two?
Wawona Detail

Spar Shed Interior

Okay, I like the spar shed. I like the sounds of the words, I like the light inside it, I like the perspective of it, I like the smell of it, a combination of marine paint and woodworking smells. It's open enough to the air that the marine paint is more of an aroma, at least for me.

I should spend a lot of time around the Wawona, photographing it as much as possible. They're going to move it to drydock on the 21st, where it'll be dismantled and preserved (whatever is worth preserving). Just at the bottom edge of the photo is plywood, nailed up around the water line and below to make it a little more lakeworthy. I particularly like the 'Wawona detail' - colours, texture, light, lines
Based on gut response, I have a strong preference for 'Spar Shed'. Trying to analyse that, my head says 'Spar Shed Two' is a better photo, but my gut insists. Whoops, didn't realize I wasn't logged in there for a second.
First, thanks for the time and thought. Always appreciated!
I'm leaning towards "Spar Shed" myself. It has a lot of edge tension to it, because the spar goes right to the edge of the frame.
I think the lighting/coloring is better in "Spar Shed Two" but that could be a matter of choices made during raw conversion and processing.
