My nephew - post processing

[tiny]

Hi all,
Here are two post processed photos of the same shot. Can you tell which one looks better?

definitely photo number one is better.
no. 2 is contrasty and too orange.

Thanks. That was my opinion too.

I would have to agree. Number one looks more natural. I like the overall composition though.

Thanks. I was just playing with different post processing techniques and liked these two the most. But you are right. The first one looks natural.
