Okay, so first I want to a extend a huge thanks for the people who voted in my last poll. With your help, I won the photo contest!
Now, I need to send them a print copy of the winning photo contest so it can be exhibited in a gallery. Since I already won, I'm allowed to clean it up a bit in photoshop. Please take a look at these versions and help me decide which one is the best!
Thanks so much-

I'm leaning toward #3... 2 looks way too surreal and the others don't show the color on the mountains as well.
Submit the non-manipulated photo, its the honest choice.
No, you don't understand. I already won the contest with the non-manipulated photo, now I'm just deciding which one I want to put in the show.
In fact, the sort of manipulation I'm talking about was legal for the contest, I just didn't do it because I was lazy.
Xa'at, I did the alteration with Paint shop pro and if you use Photoshop as most do I'm not sure how to duplicate the results. I added just a tiny bit of color saturation.
Paint shop has a feature called clarify which I used to brighten it up and add contrast. I could have done the same with a feature called curves which I think is also on photoshop.
