Nice detail rendering.
My program just downscales the image by half while taking 2x2 grids of pixels straight from bayer… so yeah. Haven’t implemented any debayering yet.
That’s a nice example, how different demosaicers handle moiré.
From top left to bottom right going down first:
vng4, igv, lmmse, dcb, rcd, amaze

Looks like DCB is doing best in this case?
Well, in this case (moiré) igv (bottom left) is also quite good…
Lovely image.
I made no attempt at technical perfection. Filmulator with default values and then into GIMP.
An increase in saturation for the sky and the stonework. A decrease of saturation for the church roof and the colourful parts of the background buildings. Sharpened with wavelet decompose.
Ah I thought that one was DCB, misread the order
Love the shadows/light and contrast…

You haven’t upgraded your PWP 
The IGV seems to leave less color in the windows…could be a good thing if some of it is noise??

Still playing/testing with the new Local Adjustment tool that is being developed at the moment.
EDIT: Missed 2 dust bunnies, added a tad of warmth.

I did, but I used the old one for the screenshot

With Filmulator, plus GIMP to remove dust in the sky.
Settings:
- Auto CA Correct 1

- Drama 100
- White Clipping Point 0.582
I did one using gimp. Not sure what it opened in as I havn’t used this type of file before in gimp. Anyhow, I moved the exposure slider up and down a bit, Gave it more contrast, a little darker and then using GMIC I used mighty details to bring out the bricks in the church. Changed to a jpg for a smaller file
RT 5.8 dev. Used quite strong chroma NR here to reduce moiré on the second window from left.

Still the right-hand windows show strong alising.
Nice pic, thanks for the play.
Here my try with RT dev 5.8_3049:

Yes, there is some moiré in the windows and using IGV could help, but: IGV created some strange artifacts on the rooftop so i went back to AMaZE+VNG4

I used DCB + VNG4

@heckflosse yes, i checked and saw that, i just wanted to point out to your comparison concerning moiré, where igv did a good job.
