The upper one. The colors look unnatural in the 2nd one.

I prefer the overall tones and colour in the top picture, but I prefer the contrast on the rock in the water in the bottom one.

Hmmm... Sky from the 1st and the foreground from the 2nd.

Hi,
I think the first one captures the mood better, it's a very busy image though, hard to know where to look. The rock and waves provide a leading line, but your eyes want to look at the mountains on the left. It's also very "fisheye" looking, and maybe oversharpened, with quite a bit of noise.

Thanks Nick.. Yeah I got overboard with sharpening for 1st image i agree..

Tell me which one was post edited and I'll tell you which one is the better image. If both have been post edited, then neither is better than the other..

While I agree that some photos go overboard with the post-processing for my taste, I think over-generalizing that every edited photo is inherently worse is also going overboard.

I'll not argue the point, but One might be a great landscape photographer, but they sux at post editing.. in other words leave it alone or it's going to get worse.

While I agree that some people need to work on their post processing, my advice to someone who isn’t good at something is not to stop trying it because they “sux” , it’s to learn more about it and keep trying.

When I look back at photos I edited just 3 years ago I’m shocked at how bad I was yet how proud I was at the time. I’m also certain that when I look back 3 years from now I’m going to think the same way about my current photos, and that’s good, it’s a sign of growth.

The top picture for sure looks better as the bottom does look unnatural. Looks like you may have used split toning on the bottom picture?

Hey Vish,
First one looks better but it is still missing some basic corrections, horizon correction for example and vignette clearly in the top left corner.

Thanks a lot for your feedback Geoffrey..

Top for sure Vishwesh! The colors as others have stated are a bit too unnatural or warm in my opinion.

Thanks Daniel for the feedback..
