Now.... opinions?
What is considered better?

Original picture (unedited)



Added some light (10) and saturation (20):



Lessen the tint ( -15) but kept light at 10 and saturation at 20



Added luminosity (20) and contrast (30) but didn't touch light and saturation in the other tool..



Now keeping the contrast settings of the picture above, and adding tint (-10), light ( 5) and saturation (10)



Same contrast setting but going lighter on other things -3 / 3 / 5

I like the last one

I must agree.

nice colour correction, but the image is low quality, look at the legs on the left.

not trying to knock you down buy you basically made the colors richer...

I love it though...

very nice job.

Thank you
How knock me down?
I have never edted any of my pictures before, other than some selective coloring that I learned a couple weeks back, and then how to crop...
This is why I am asking for advice and comments here...
Is it a little too much edited?

Like, when you look at the result, what goes through your head, do you say, nice pic, or nice editing or ewww way too much editing..?



mmk... what about the legs on the left?
I'm new to photography, please explain what I should find when I look at the legs...

I like #3 best, it's the most natural to me, the added contrast in the other pictures make the shadows too dark.

I think he ment (about the low image quality) that the edges on the spider's legs are a little rough.

i think he means that the image is a little low quality because looking at the left leg, you can tell by seeing it is a tiny bit blurry, and a tiny bit noisy/pixelated

i do like the last one as well

oh... then he means the DoF???
