In my opinion, the first image maybe hides too much, as it took me quite a while to figure out what I was looking at. Maybe that's a plus, though, as you force the viewer to really examine the image. The 2nd image appeals to me because I like old, dirty, imperfect things. I also like how the overall gray tone of the image is disrupted by that intense splash of orange. Great photos!
