Eclipse Curves

Since my original montage of the December 10th lunar eclipse was pretty angular, and didn't feel at all like a path the moon might actually take, ever, I decided to try a more curved layout.

Martyn on PhotoSIG also proposed that the shot of the red moon in totality should be at the top of the montage, so I made a flipped version.

So, what do you think?  Should I stick with the original angular version?  Or is one of the curved ones better, and if so, which one?
