Like this one Ganesh. I do get the melancholy feeling. The compressed tonal range seems to reflect the limited options. The rest of the group becoming a distant dream adds.
You named the other one leads. I have a feeling if we process this with a different tonality we can evoke a positive feeling of determination and leadership. The leader can see ahead and needs to at times walk alone ahead to pave the way. What will this tonal treatment look like. If we keep the two and interchange the title will the viewer feel that disconnect ?
your thoughts ?
