The first one without a doubt. Great colour on the cobbles and a very interesting angle.
Best regards, John

The first by a mile.

Keeping the distant section of the path sharp gives the composition somewhere to go, and the leaves are an interesting stopping-off point along the way.

Blurring the distant section effectively stops the journey at the leaves, which seems a lot less satisfying.

Not particularly bothered by the blur in the immediate foreground - I don't think it affects the composition as much.

I like the 1st one best. One case where a shot is better
without any bokeh. It's more like a field/view camera shot
using f/64 or a tilted lens.

First one for me too very effective with full dof like this. What was your aperture, and was the camera supported?

Well seems to be a resounding win for the first shot then. The shots are the same image, the second shot has a Gaussian blur filter added to the top and bottom of the shot.
