Hi Darius,
What part of Adelaide? I'm a former crow eater, east of Adelaide in the mallee and my wife is a Dover Gardens girl.
Your shots demonstrate that there certainly is a difference.
My problem, however, is what is the "truth" .....what is closest to accurately re-producing what you saw???? Please do not take this as any criticism of your photo at all, none is intended or implied, this is more of a general comment of the digital age of post processing.
I think (stress that bit..."I think")...that one of the great things about photography is the accurate re-production of what the photographer saw and wanted to capture.
An area of increasing dis-quiet or doubt, in my humble opinion, is the over emphasis on post processing and how it can distort the reality and be replaced by what someone wanted to see, rather than an accurate re-production of what was actually there.
So...what did you see? which is the more accurate portrail of what attracted you to take the shot? By this I mean the colours and tones of what you saw.
Good capture by the way, and yes, I shoot in RAW and convert using Lightroom, but try and keep the "manipulation" to a minimum in the interest of accuracy.
Cheers.
