Two contrasting images of the same thing, taken on different occasions with technology generations apart. Does either capture the mood better or worse than the other, or just differently?

Thanks for your comment Rob. I think that’s my point really, very different images, very different feel, hence it doesnt matter what they’re taken with, just that they captured the intended mood at the time.
I think the composition determines the response Matt, rather than the technology. It is, in my view, the different perspective and many people versus a solitary figure that, for me, make the Google image more appealing. I also prefer the colour over black and white in this instance. Where is this?
