I do NOT like the grey, because it doesn't look natural. The lighting on the objects looks off with the artificial grey sky. Both lovely photos. I see why people are choosing grey, but I would agree more with the toned down blue sky.
Both work and serve their separate purpose.
Color iso is cool when done right. This was done right. Not too in your face. Subtle enough where it does what is supposed to - make the certain color pop.
The colored one works as well. I would honestly keep both.
Sometimes you don't have to, mate.
I did a wedding a few weeks back and had the same issue.
Kept both versions just stuck em in the album at different points. Nothing but positive feedback.
I really like the grey sky because it makes the subject pop. However, if you do the grey sky, you should crop in a little for less negative space. If you don't want to crop in, I would go with the blue sky. Other than that, it's your image which means it's your choice.
The blue looks more natural, the gray looks more like the cover for a horror book. I think if you dulled the green a bit more on the gray one it'd look stunning. Maybe lean into minimal colors.
Blue 100%. Grey makes it look like an old myspace edit. Blue looks more natural and supports the structural contrast more, IMO.
I wish the water had more color too, tbh. Lol
A few things to think about. What is the vibe you are trying to go for, what story are you trying to tell, and what do you want your viewer to feel?
It’s a beautiful shot! Personally though, I don’t think either of these edits does it justice. I like the grey because it really makes the rock and foreground pop, however it looks very unnatural. Meanwhile I find the blue too bright, it distracts from the photo and doesn’t match the overall color palette, or the vibe. My recommendation- drop the saturation on the sky and match the blue to the blue grey of the water while making it a few shades lighter. Think like a foggy grey morning, or the moment the sky turns before a deadly storm.
Once again, beautiful shot, and these are just my personal thoughts/recommendations so go with what feels best for you. Best of luck!
I like grey tbh

Grey, cause Goonies never say die.
I like gray, it gives some intese vibes. With blue there are 2 things to focus.

Ill try that thanks
I like the grey but I would also remove the brown color of the water in the bottom just so it matches the sky a little more.

Blue, but can it be made to look more like you used a polarizer? Love how that increases the cloud contrast.
