    Football Stadium on Lonely Evening (PLEASE help)

    I took this shot this evening at the University of Kentucky football stadium. Please, tell me what you think. Do you like the wide one better (cropped off the sky) or the one with the guy walking out of the lower right corner?

    My brother is a huge UK football fan, and I was wanting to get a good shot of the stadium to print and frame for him. Which one of these do you think I should use, or should I try again? I've only got about one more week before that parking lot is filled with students until next summer.

    Also, if I decided to have the wider one printed, how would that work? Could I have it printed in wide angle like that? Or would I have to cut some off the print at top and bottom, or what? The only printing I've done is just take it to Rite-Aid and print it from their Kodak photo center. Any better suggestions? :/

    Also, how big do you think I should print it?

    It was shot at about 30mm, ISO 100, and shutter at 1/200, on shutter priority mode on my drebel. I forget the arpeture, sorry.

    I like the one with more sky. The deeper blue is complementary to the gold and orangey color of the building and I think the extra space give the shot balance.

    The 2nd one

    I also prefer the composition of the 2nd shot, the one with more sky.
