I also like the first version the best.

I do too in this case. When I gave the little tutorial it was with the knowledge that I was not in possession of the RAW file so could not play with it. I like the original better. But it is a matter of taste and opinion. But it is true that we too often lift shadows that don't necessarily need to be lifted. I am often guilty of that.

What you said was:

You can greatly improve these in post because they are high dynamic range shots and you need to play with the five tone-mapping sliders in LR to bring the images out.

These foregrounds must pop more while not blowing out the bright spots in the sky.

Why don't you ask for the RAW to be made available, and show us all how you'd greatly improve upon it?
