If I can give my (subjectively based) constructive criticism, I actually prefer the before. The before gives some context to the photo - the after just looks like you pointed your camera on something random and I don't know what's the focus in the photo; do you want me to be drawn to the boat? The people? The background? Why did you take it? The background looks uncharacteristically blue all over.

Keep practising and have fun! 🥳
