I need a serious critique on those... I have to decide which one is better:

1. The original version:

2. or the one with auto-levels adjusted

I am going to enlarge one of those and dunno which one

I like the first one better Mentos. The colors are a lot warmer to me. The blues in the first are also more relaxing too I think.

Have a play with the curves Mentos - and I mean a real play, make it like a rollercoaster and see what you get. Trouble is, if you only use auto levels to balance the contrast etc. you can miss out on the finish.

Have a play, be rough with the sliders - you can always undo it and start again.

That said, I agree with elsaspet, the first one is a lot warmer and more serene

Im going to go with the first one too, has a nice golden tint to it...
