Hey everyone I've been wanting to start shooting in RAW for some time now but I needed to get new software and well... I haven't been able to get it (Lightroom 6) but just don't have the money and I don't want a CC subscription either so I was in a bind and finally I took a look into this thing called a DNG converter and learned how to convert my raw files to dng format and now my software (elements 11) can read them so i'm really happy now and wanted to hear your thoughts on these pic's below

honest opinion, are these better than my previous ones?
