The blades look okay. But the contrast of the rest of the image makes it look way too washed out. Version 1 was better in this regard.

Also, it’s good to do color and contrast adjustments on just the picture area, with the black bars cropped out. Then, they’ll be added back when you render later. That way they’ll stay black throughout the film, instead of switching color and contrast. But in this case, leaving them there has helped depict what’s off about the contrast.
