It's pretty much the same but with darker colors?

Well since it's supposed to be on Hawaii or something, the brighter colors and less contrast in the original version makes more sense and creates a more... warm feeling. I suppose you cropped the image and raised the contrast as well as made the colors darker but except for making it pop out more I kind of prefer the original
