Much better and a gorgeous picture (and model/subject) too It looks like increased contrast (and/or black levels) and a cooler white balance. How warm am I?

You were pretty warm. I used curves to increase the contrast.
Then I boosted the reds and blues i believe.

And I dont understand by what you mean at the end of your sentence.(Last guy)

I am not an expert, but I like the first one, The second seems to be washed out, but it does have increased contrast.
