    Mt.Fuji at dawn

    Hi all
    Please can you help me out. I want to enlarge one of these shots and have it framed but can't decide which one to go for. Any advice or criticism is welcome.
    Thanks
    Mark

    im going to go against popular opinion and say #3. Yes, it's Mt. Fuji, and many people have taken photos of it. what's special about #3 is it actually makes good use of its surroundings while centering the mt. as the focus of the image still. your eye is drawn right to it.

    I'm for #3 as its the only view I have never seen or likely to see again.

    All three are wonderful and I would print and frame all 4.

    Thanks for the comments everyone. I'm still not decided but will probably make up my mind today and get it printed later today.
    Thanks again

    Thanks everyone. Number 3 it was. I took it in to the printers on Wednesday to get a nice B2 sized print of it to hang in the middle of my apartment living room.
