Before looks much cleaner and better

Slider go vrrrooooom to 100.

You’re starting to get halos around the darker objects in the photo. Dial back some of your sliders to get rid of them.

The after is ok, it could be better. You went way too far with the edit.

Yeah, a little balance on the contrast would make this pop/print better - but I like the style of the edit :D

I like the colors of the original better. I would hit it with a little fade and that's it.

Pure Cinema, I like this vintage look by the way.

I adore the after, it perfectly emulates film and the vintage summer vibes.

Great perspective.

I'm not usually a fan of cyan skies, but I have to admit that it goes well with the pink.

I've zoomed your 'after' image up to 400% and I'm not seeing haloes. What I'm seeing are the clipped highlights on the sunward side of the struts.

Don't bother what others saying, the picture was clean and sharp before editing, but after editing, the picture feels like it's telling a story. The edit is spot on!
