Hi Giovanni. There's a lot I like about this photo and more generally your effort to try different things. You have a very good 'eye' for this. The backlighting on the baboon is really wonderful and clearly the key stand-out feature of this. So I think your repost works better as it defines the outline of the baboon better. The dark background helps a lot. The light has caused the foreground to look very contrasty and crunchy and I think this does distract somewhat from the baboon. I'd be inclined to make some localised changes to that foreground either to darken it, lower the contrast or add a little blur. For the composition, I would take a little off the top of the frame to just below the bright blobs of light coming through the trees. This will focus more attention on the baboon and balance the composition better for me.
Hi Giovanni, interesting image, here is my take on your image removing some of the distractions in the back and going for a pano crop.

Giovanni, I love the backlit subject against the unlight BG. Echoing what Glenn said, it's nice to see someone try different things. I like all of the versions of this and I think the image lends itself nicely to multiple interpretations. I like the action and the original composition. Thank for sharing. I really like Tim's take on it too.
