I thought the same thing. the first version was during winter with snow and the 2nd is during the summer... totally different effect.

I love the feel of the last shot. The quiet of the snow just pulls me in.

Couldn't agree more. It just works better than the new edit.

I am with the crowd....I like that last shot. It is quiet and soothing and invites you to a secret place just beyond the bend. The edited photo has a person who looks rather stiff and is not in stride. Almost looks as though he or she is hesitant to go any farther which certainly i snot the intent of the photo. I do think it is amazing that you completely transformed the shot. I envy that kind of ability.

Well thank you, I must say that getting to this location is a bit of a pain in the ass. Only 400 miles and 7 hours from my house. So when i get there I usually shoot the hell out of it.

I like the last one as well. I actually like it without the person. I would think with a person it would pull from the picture. If that makes sense. If the person in the second one was wearing lighter clothes, or it was a bit lighter over all it may pull you more.
sorry guess I shouldn't have given my two cents

beautiful place.
