This is a great example that the whole process is very subjective!
Honestly when i saw the wipe over in the color graded part i i first thought oh my god!
This is just too much for me! You lose all the shadow tones and the easy light weight mood from the first part! Probably a mixture of both would be best for me! Its not always an improvement to pull the sliders as much as possible even with the tone curves on! I tend to prefer the bright colors
