The Deers - With Color Grading

I am trying to learn Davinci Resolve and therefore changing color grading and updating older images while showing older onces, let me know which on you like the best please. The old ones uses the shadow for framing while the new one is using stronger highlights for focus.

To practice Davinci Resolve I am color grading old renders to look different. I gave it more light around overall to match the strong high lights, more color and less darker shadows which means I lose the shadow framing I used before.
