JPEG, RAW and Processed

Well I said that I would post up some examples of JPEG, RAW, and Processed to show the differences. It takes some time figuring out the settings, but I am thinking the Processed looks best, because you don't have all the blown out detail. I would love to hear what you guys think though!
 The pillar at the Temple of Sinawava in Zion- JPEG (straight out of the camera with its settings) 
 The pillar at the Temple of Sinawava in Zion- RAW (straight out of the camera, without any special settings). As you can see, it is a very bland picture, with no contrast or real color!
 The pillar at the Temple of Sinawava in Zion- Processed (A little work done with Picasa). Auto contrast, brightened fill light, shadow and highlight adjustments. 
 Angels Landing from a cottonwood covered floodplain- JPEG
 Angels Landing from a cottonwood covered floodplain- RAW
Angels Landing from a cottonwood covered floodplain- Processed

Hope this helps you guys see what the difference is between the three. It sure helped me! Looking forward to input...
