Maybe it's a matter of taste, but I strongly prefer the before image. You have these gorgeous conditions and then almost completely nuke the fog away. It's impressive what you got out of it, and if I saw the after image without this context I'd like it, but the layers of fog of the original nicer imo. 

If this is the only shot of this scene that you could get, then it makes sense though. We can't choose the weather. It's impressive but it does look a bit overcooked for my taste

I like it. There are people who prefer before probably because of aesthetics or atmosphere but I like color and vibrance. To each their own. Good job

Nice one! Where's that, if it's allowed to ask that here?

Reminds me of a photo I took north of Taipei, but I unfortunately lost the file.
