Advice: people or no people 1

I took this picture today on a hike up to a castle in Bad Urach, but I can't decide whether I like it with or without people in the frame. I would love to hear your thoughts on this! Thank you! The link to the other version is http://365project.org/vera365/runner-ups-to-3/2015-09-06

Thnk I like this one, your eye is drawn to the people and they provde perpective?

[Frances Tackaberry]

Yes, I think I like this one better too. You realize how large of an area the photo is capturing with the people included.

[Lindy]

I like this one....gives some scale to the image

[vstap]

I agree with all!

[Ute Reckhorn]

I love this one. But the other one is also nice. Either way, they both have their story.

[Kristen]

I like people, it gives perspective.

[Sheryl]

With people for me. Nice.

[Pat Knowles]

People for me too Vera!

[john morley]

Mind you this is also interesting, as it asks. Where are they going, sorry I'm no help at all both are great..

[Marta]

People, I say :-)

[roulin]

Vera, both are good, but I like something in between) - see on DB.

[Bob Zwolinsky]

My vote goes for the people. Without them all you have is an ok pattern picture. With them you have scale and interest and retain the pattern element.

[Rica]

I like this one better. It's amazing!

[Phil Howcroft]

with people, but would for some reason prefer them walking in the other directio

[Barbara Webb]

I like the one with people, adds interest and perspective to this wonderful photo!

Thank you all so much for your input! It is fascinating that not only there are various preferences for either people or no people, but also that there are so many reasons why the people version was more attractive to so many. Thanks for the help with that!

People. I needed the scale. :) Great image.

[Ukandie!]

I prefer this one too for much the same reason as mentioned by others, the people add a sense of scale and a point of interest. Fantastic capture.
