One of these photos is done with my regular processing; one is done with Luminar. Which do you prefer? I'™m happy to receive responses as to why. Thanks in advance.

Second one looks better to me. More contrast and detail in the wood, sky more realistic.

Second one shows a tad more detail in the barn roof , siding and doors.... sky is not quite so saturated. So which is which and did you shoot raw or JPG originally?

I prefer the first one, the second looks too overprocessed and the colors are unnatural.

second one for me because highlights are more defined

I prefer the first, although both seem over saturated to me. The second seems to have some sort of artifact (slight halo?) in the sky adjacent to the left side of the barn and its roof.

My preference is for the second one, witch goes to show that everyone has their differences. I like a picture with snap however, for a documentary point of view the first one has its desires. That sort of leaves you up a tree doesn't it?

I’m not too keen on either one. Would like to see the original before processing, after which I would look at doing processing with less saturation.

The first image gets my vote, Jay I prefer its darker color whereas the second one looks faded. I guess for testing processing these images are suitable - otherwise, they don't pack a punch.

In the download, I like the second one better but that is just me, I like contrast and sharp lines in photos. :-) They are both good.

I like 2, it's brighter and more details of the branches, etc. show.

Blue sky detracting to me in both.

Take the barn from the first one and put it in the second.

I like the second one. There is more detail and the colors are more vibrant.

#2 is overcooked. Some may like it that way. I prefer #1.
