Contrast: support or distort?

What happens when you edit a photo individually (and quickly on a phone)?

The first photo is unedited. The second uses a Photoshop Express filter followed by some manual editing of my own to see whether colour could be breathed into a photo taken on a grey day.

It's easy to think I’m not pushing the edit too far, but perhaps I am. Perhaps I’m doing a perfectly reasonable edit with the contrast between the two distorting my perspective.

It's interesting to discover that the difference between two contrasting things, whatever they might be, could serve to create a false picture of the value of one or both items.
