OK I need everyones opinion. which do you prefer, # 1 the more vibrant # 2? OR, am I better with the heavy cropped image # 3?

PS, I just saw the artifacs at the bottom and far right edges I will crop out of the winner!

Ed,

I vote for the 2nd more vibrant result. I think it is still a bit understated actually. I would like to see it with the stars added. The crop is very nice too, and kinda stands on its own as a separate image, but I like the wider view, especially once you crop out the minor artifacts as you mentioned.

I am with Mike, #2 is my pick, but I am also really liking #3.
