I really love this image - anything marine or underwater instantly is a hit with me, but it's a great image nonetheless. I really like how the jellyfish seem to be weighted over to the right.
Interestingly, I much prefer the calmer, muted tones of the original. I think a little extra contrast looks good, but if I did that I'd probably want to tone the saturation back down to something a little more natural.
The blue tones and shifts to green are gorgeous and captured really nicely in the original, and it'd be a shame to lose that by pushing the contrast too high...interesting. Both have their merits, though - but I do think I prefer the original.
It's a great image, I really love it!
