"A Robot attacking a City"

I liked the first version - the important area of the pic is middle to upper right - not a natural area for any image's main focus. This means it's important that the relatively unimportant areas of the image (the rubble, dark areas) remain fairly undetailed or impressionistic only, so the eye slides over them quickly and is drawn by the beam to the robot's head and shoulders - the image's central focus. After that, the eye can wander.

Now though, the extra detail causes the eye to pause on the central rubble before the viewer can understand what's going on causing visual confusion.

Ahem.

(actually I've just had a second look and the second one's not bad either ;-)
