POTD - Three Sets of Berries

My neighbor's tree with the lovely red berries caught my eye yesterday during my Saturday run (I notice all sorts of things to photograph while running - it helps to pass the miles). I shot most of them with the same settings (70mm, aperture priority - F2.8, ISO200), then played around with the various captures to get three different results.

Basically SOOC, just cropped from horizontal to vertical:
Berry Play 1 - SOOC

Applied a vignette, then lightened with a Levels adjustment. The lighting is so different from the first picture - the blue sky casts a coolness over the scene.
Winter Berries

This one gets a vintage treatment with a hue / saturation layer. This isn't quite my "normal style", so it was fun to create.
Vintage Berries?

Which one do you like?

  1. ALL are wonderful, but I really like the 3rd one the best. Do you actually run with your camera?
