It's a Japanese Maple called "Blood Good" (if I remember right).

I like the water, and the other background elements like the round object and the direction of that wooden handle parallel to the folded leaf to the upper left. Design wise and clarity of focus, its my choice.

I would chose #3. Reason being is, the plant has consumed the whole shot. You can see unopened and opened blooms and that gives me an idea of how bountiful and healthy it is.I want to say it is a coreopsis but I dont know a thing about names...yet. . Just thought I'd add my cents worth..

I like the white strawberry flower. It just looks happy. The last one is pretty, too. What is that? It's growing all over my yard.
