Did anyone notice how Korra's eyes glowed yellowish while she was energybending at the end of season 1? Very different from the blueish glow that Aang's eyes had when he entered the Avatar State. This could have been just to add contrast to Korra's blue chromatic clothing arrangement, but what if it has to do with how Korra is using the energybending as opossed to how Aang used it?

Aang's energybending was brought on by wrath and fear. Ultimately, he used it as a weapon, a tool of justice and judgement. He "killed" people's bending. Not to say that they didn't have it coming.

Korra is different though. She is using energybending to undo what Amon/Noatak did. She performs it as an act of mercy and (presumable) is healing everyone who's lost their bending. Makes sense when the creators have explicitly stated that Korra is opposite to Aang in every way.

Additional, check out the picture of the lion turtle energybending Aang above. His energybending seems to be green and gold.
