These are the same tree. Looking at number two looks more natural without the house in the background. If I point my camera at the good parts I get better images. You just need to do the same with your mind. Avoid going where you see too much bad.
Aha, but perspective is so subjective. I rather like the photo with the house. The lovely flowers leading my eye to the pretty house inspires my curiosity. Where is the house? Who lives there and what is their story? How would I feel if I visited?

The other pic is also lovely, but doesn't ask me questions.

The first photo is more disturbing, in that it requires me to think and when I think I have a degree of anxiety. The second photo is more peaceful, but has less depth to it.

A really interesting example, Sp.
