It's a real subtle difference, though. If you can't tell the difference, it probably doesn't matter whether you leave it checked or unchecked.

Thank you!
I decided to check this out after your response and I saw a difference. The ocean water and sky looked slightly better. I think I'll leave it unchecked since it looks much better.
