Poll: Break from the Bugs

So I guess we can take slight break from all the bugs (though if you've missed them, scroll down and check them out).
I took these two photos specifically with the thought in mind to try multiple framing options for a subject.
Close Crop
Wider Crop
Technical Data: Canon EOS 7D, Tamron 180mm f/3.5 Di SP LD 1:1 Macro, 1/32 and 1/50 sec at f/8. ISO 200. Dolica AX620B100 tripod. No post production. Kanawha State Forest, Charleston, WV.
Unfortunately I was using a prime lens, so I actually had to move the whole camera, so these aren't necessarily identical framing, but I still like both. Vote for your favorite and drop me a comment to let me know why.

Close crop for me. I like the background a lot, once again it makes my eyes search it for recognizable shapes breaking my concentration on the subject. Nice picture, would look awesome in a frame! :)
Picked close crop because it has more "flower" in it. I don't really like how none of the flowers are facing the camera in the wider shot.
While I like both of the photos, I prefer the composition of the wider shot. I like that you can see the end of the flower stalk - you aren't left wondering what was cut off. The color is really great, too - not exclusive to this shot - but I like the majority green with just a pop of purple.
