Messing around with an editing style thats a bit different to my usual, but following the same punchy high impact idea.

Which do you prefer?

Dirty great watermark is just tacked on.

Also seems Photobuckets compression is awful, but I'm really not a fan of Flickr.

For those wondering, its Topaz Adjust 5.
 
The second (lower) image appears to have higher saturation to my eyes, and better dynamic range in the shadow areas of the foreground. The second image I personally prefer as it looks warmer. The concrete floor in the first image looks too white and "forced".
 
The second one is the first one but after going through a topaz adjust setting, think it was dynamic pop. Didn't want to over do it though.

2nd one for me too.
I think you could actually give it a bit more, but I think the thing is to make it pop without over doing it.
It's a bit like HDR, done well it's great, overdone (which most seem to be) it looks awful.

Yeah I was trying not to over do it, but maybe it could take a bit more? Will have a play tonight.

Not using any of these images for client work at the moment, but hope to maybe with my next one.
