They have different feels to them. There are things I prefer about the first one, it looks more like a photograph, more realistic. This is actually kind of neat, looks more like an impressionist painting than a photograph.
I'm with Dana, I prefer the other one... I prefer the photographic look, but it's just my personal preference. Most may prefer this one, photography and processing is a very subjective thing. It's like how some people like some music, while others don't. :-)
I agree with Harriet, I think they each have a different mood about them....I prefer the other one because of it's moody,almost haunting effect while this one has more detail.
@sarasdadandmom@skipt07@auroralinda@mtngal@iimage@danacarruthers@asutherland1964@pj Thanks for taking the time to comment on the moon shots... i wanted to know if processing is worth all the time I put into it. I have fun with the processing and maybe I'm too critical of my own photos but most of them need processing.. Thanks all....
I prefer this one too! I like a little colour in my photos! Not a big fan of B&W or sepia...Kodak colour was a wonder! and I need colours to fully appreciate a photo! But again, that is my opinion...
