The first one is completly unaltered. Raw how it looked through the viewfinder with the sun about to set. Nice when the sun is behind you. The second one has the whitebalance altered onto it so it is "more pleasing" or natural to the eye. I really do not like photo processing. I like to see what I saw in person. Some like touch ups. I saw the black too......could be mud or flys. Damn flies were eating me alive.
