#1 for me too as I love the colours. The train in Uyuni is also a great shot - it shows just how desolate it is out there.

I really like #2...its sort of a contrast between the desolation of the place and the hope brought by the train...

Voting for #1...it was a hard tossup but #1 won because I've actually been there. Too bad I'm not that artistic in my photos...

Currently traveling the world for work...with a few extra fiddleybits thrown in to keep it new...it's the cheapest way to go!!!

Quote from my friend Chuck, who spent 5 months riding his bicycle all the way around the USA - "Nobody says you have to order an entree in the restaurant of life, you'll only be here once! Order the sampler, try as many as you can before you're full; odds are one (of) the items on this menu does more for you than you ever thought. And if I'm wrong, tell the waiter that his menu sucks, throw the cook aside and invent your own masterpiece. Just pour 'em all in, all your favorite ingredients. With enough imagination, any combination will work -- there are no recipes for the paths still awaiting discovery."

I'd have gone #1 but I'm surrounded by this daily at the moment. #2 has take my vote this month as I long for the solitude and uncertainty that it offers..

Definitely number 2 for me. So evocative. It looks like who ever took tried to ram every rule of composition into the shoot and it worked. Use of rule of thirds, using a diagonal to draw you eye into the photo. #1 is a nice photo, but number two seems to really have a story.
