Opinions?

what do you guys think of these 2 pics? Is the glowy/blownout part distracting? I kind of like them but I know it's not a very well executed photo... but I almost think the little imperfections kinda make it unique? Or maybe not lol

Also, which one is better?

(and sorry about the obnoxious watermark, I usually don't do that to my urbex pics but my new website auto-adds them and I'm too lazy to go back and change them)

#1; I like the focus you set here, bringing in the back more clear than the foreground. But with that said, the brightness of light here is a bit much. I think I would have used a yellow B&W filter here., or even a amber creative filter, both of which would have brought more detail in.
If you wanted the flooding out, I think a cross hair on that corner glare would have given a wonderful touch. But the over exposure really does not do much for me on this one.

#2; Even thought I know a Green B&W filter is used for portraits, I thin in this case it would have offered a lot. Again the over exposure, does little for me. Also there is so much clutter it makes it hard to focus on any one thing, yet it also makes you want to look more.

Both of these I like, but what I find that hurts them is the over exposed lighting.

The first one is a bit overexposed for my liking, as my attention is first drawn to the super white spaces. However I personally think the second photo is fantastic. There is something about it that almost makes it look like it's a drawing, to me at least. I believe that the second one is stronger. The candlestick (I'm assuming it's a candlestick? Correct me if I'm wrong) in the front of the composition is so spooky looking, I love it.

The dodging is really obvious on the candle stick. Perhaps give it a halo around the edge, but avoid the stick itself to get the effect you want?

The top one has way too much stuff going on in it... All the stuff is really cool, but it's just confusing
