I like the first the best, but it took me a while to figure out why. In the 
second, she is tall, and gives the impression of being a skinny triangle: 
broader at the bottom and narrower at the top. For some subtle reason, I did 
not like that, and had to take a second look at the picture to kill a false 
memory that she had a pointy head.
