If you have to ask...

Well I don't like it as processed presently. The fog is a little thin and it makes the bottom just look like overexposed. I like how you framed the building in the window of the bridge

Colors looks flat to me in your modified original. Maybe boost the saturation and vibrance just a bit to bring out that beautiful orange vermilion color of the bridge. Though i have to agree that it's better that the original photo you posted.

Agreed. The second photo is much better, but I agree to boost the saturation or vibrancy.

You are looking at the 2nd pic. The OP must have taken down the original.

Oh, I saw roni's second post only saying "remove" and I didn't understand. Yeah, the second pic looks better without the fog.

Avoid editing old posts without very good reason, otherwise it ends up very confusing.

Yeah, and then we can't see the progression the pic has taken after critique is given.
