Original image. Notice, virtually no shadows present.

For some reason the plant doesn't look natural to me, my eyes were first drawn to the sort of a glare on the leaves (eyes go to the light thing). So saying that the original is more pleasing to me.
Doesn't really look like a porch.
I Like the image, but I like the original better. More pleasant and natural.

Yeah, in most cases HDR just doesn't cut it.
I like them both but I wish
I could see all of the window.
Was there a reason for cutting
the top of the window off?

I think in this case the window is background and not the subject of the photo.

Yeah, it may be called something else but looks very much like an HDR image. I sense a little prickliness here. If comments bother you then don't post.
For me the original is far better. The colors are richer; red base of plant and green leaves have a nice rich color. Brick wall has a slight improvement over pp image according to my aging eyesight. Red is a great color for bringing your eyes into the picture. The red in first image is flat looking compared to second image. It’s fun working with different images anyway. Thanks for posting.

I like the original image better, also. It is more realistic looking. The PP one looks more like a painting and slightly washed out. Although if I hadn't seen the original, I would also like the PP one. They both have their own merits. But to compare the two, I'd say the original is richer looking.

Comments don't bother me, as long as people making them know what they are talking about.
This image looks nothing like HDR. HDR images have colors boosted. Colors on this image are actually flat.

I like the second image a bit better than the first.
