Waterfall Editing Dilemma

You wanna know what being a photographer is like? It’s like standing in the cereal aisle trying to pick between your two favorites for hours. 🤪 I’ve learned so many different editing styles over the years and I love that I have that in my pocket of skills but sometimes this happens. ☝🏻 I LOVE two edits and can’t decide which one to use for IG, clients, to hang in my house, etc. Like I’d rather stare at cereal than decide which of these I like more 🤣 So for funnsies, which do you like more and why? Maybe discussing this with you all will make deciding things like this in the future a bit easier for all of us 😁 📸 @sonyalpha A7II @tamronusa 17-28mm shot and edited by yours truly! First edit is the Freedom preset from my desktop pack (link in bio) and second is edited from scratch!
