Are these images reversed? The “before” shots look eminently better than the “after”.
In the wave shot, the blue wave has been de-saturated to the extent it has left a vibrant blue a pale watercolour.
The second image seems to have acquired a slight greenish cast.
And the image of the young girl has gone horribly wrong again. In attempting to eradicate a magenta cast, it has acquired a greenish cast and the result looks more like a photo left out in the sun too long and has faded. Unless, of course, this was what was intended.

Terry’s comments are my thought exactly…please tell us that the images are reversed. I can’t imaging anyone wanting turn what appear to be very nice photos in the “before” images into the desaturated, green cast images that appear in the “after” images.

OK…I guess I should have looked at the Lightroom post first. Apparently this was the intended look…make them appear to be old and faded for “background” images in photobooks and such.
