I like the LR version better.

Having said that, I sometimes find that LR renders colors too vividly for my 
taste (and I use no other RAW developer, I hate messing around with 
different programs). When that happens, I just apply the saturation slider, 
usually somewhere between -5 and -10 does the trick.

Of course, as you know, if the light is truly ugly and people are involved, 
then I just convert to B&W :-)

Cheers,
Nathan
