Finding right composition for the shot

This first photo was pretty random. I was flying to get some video and i seen this shape of the road and that one tree. My only idea was that i want that road to start at the down left edge of the frame. I posted few photos HERE and markangeltrueman@markangeltrueman got me thinking with his comment.

Few days later i was out there again. The idea was to get a different perspective on that shot. The idea in my head was to try to get that road to start in down right corner but it was windy so i could not get high enough, and the field is not "long enough" and i would get other distractions in the lower part of the photo. I like the shadow of that tree in this shot.

Another version where the horizontal line is strait.

And one with poor cloning just to see would that part look better if it was all green.

Then for the few days we had shitty weather, with rain and heavy winds. And i was still thinking could that be better. I took first opportunity and went back. I managed to go a bit higher.

I am still not sure should vertical or horizontal line be strait? :)

I like those 2 birds near the tree on this one. also the PS cloning work on that upper part is not that terrible.

Any of you have a favorite one? What would you do different?

I like this spot, so i will probably go back when colors start to change. The tree will probably be lost when those corns (think it was corn) become green. Not sure how good will it look.
