All beautifully done, Ben. I’m leaning a bit more toward splitting the difference as my favorite. I find the differences to be very subtle between them.

There is something about the original that makes it look unnatural -- to my eye. I prefer the levels version.

I prefer the second image over the Levels, although I definitely like the "split the difference" image best.

Levels does it for me.

They are both excellent but I prefer the slightly darker tone in the first one.

They evoke different moods. I like them both.

I like 2 more because it has more contrast.
