Interesting.  "Moose Version 2" manages to look 'realistic' while  
still bringing out the clouds and contrast between the temple and the  
sky.   The deeper shadows on the temple definitely give it a more 3D  
look.

Did you correct the perspective distortion from the 28mm somewhat as  
well?  The temple seems a little more 'squat'?  Or maybe that's just  
the combination of slight rotation and contrast.
