This is the same shot with different white balance treatment. Which one do you guys like better?

Bottom one looks more like "white light" but, IMO, go about two clicks back toward blue and it will feel a bit more natural...

i like the cooler looking blue pic. not too realistic, but who cares. More sci-fi, which is what the scene evokes

I've going to put my vote in for the blue picture. The bottom one has a certain feeling of cleanliness with the white light, but the blue suits the building a bit more, in my opinion.

I like the 1st one (blue look)

Where is that? The convention center tunnel entrance?

I like the 1st one a bit better. Bottom one is too white for my taste.

The bottom one if you can reduce the amount of white in the pic a little bit.

I prefer the first photo. The background at top right becomes more secondary to the main subject of the image.

I think a little bit bluer than what the white one is would look good. Between the two I'd take the white, though.
