I'm experimenting with using Levels instead of the HDR panel in Capture One. Which (if any!) do you like better?

Thanks,

Ben

Ben, I prefer the second; it seems to have more punch to it.

The original looks slightly lighter to me. Don’t really see any other differences.

The second.
The first is more grey.
(At least on my monitor.....)

Hard to call, the original edit looks better overall to me but the levels does more for the shadows on the roof.
I think on reflection I'd go for the with levels one. Not as much contrast but not so harsh either.
