What elements of Mark's description of Jesus' baptism does Luke change?

Compared to Mark's Gospel, Chapter 3 contains a more elaborate account of John the Baptist and the baptism of Jesus, linked to Luke's genealogy of Jesus. Some scholars believe that Luke's Gospel was originally intended to begin with John the Baptist, as does Mark, and that chapters 1 and 2 were later additions. Luke liked to place his drama in a historical context and was at pains to identify the year of Jesus' baptism, which he did by specifying the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, as well as mentioning Pontius Pilate, Herod Antipas and Philip.
In Mark's Gospel, only Jesus saw the dove and heard the voice from heaven. In Luke's Gospel, it seems that everyone present saw the dove and heard the voice from heaven.
Both Matthew and Luke are reliant on the Gospel of Mark but, in the story of Jesus' baptism, Luke is closer to the original than is Matthew. For example, Mark 1:4 and Luke 3:3 have John the Baptist preaching baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. Matthew at 3:1 was unwilling to have Jesus involving himself in a baptism of "repentance for the remission of sins" and so omits that line.
