Mountain Tschigat

One of the mountain of my last trip. I tried to keep the image more natural.
I have a contrast, brightness saturation mask on the sky to decrese the brightness and a rgb curve mask for the mountain to increase the brightness of the snow.
critique is welcome :slight_smile:

Nice photograph!
My try in GIMP. Fairly similar result. I used luminosity masks to show a little more detail in the darkest areas and slightly emphasise the mistiness, then modified two of the masks to brighten the snow.

Nice image, thanks for sharing.

dt 3.6.

your crop but modern workflow + filmic instead of basecurve / tonecurves:

Different crop, a bit more focus on the summit cross:

Really like the cloud shape in the middle, it’s like a person playing the guitar on top of the mountain :grinning: :guitar:

I think I push the sky too far this time, but I’m not sure if it is banding or just clouds alternating in between the sky.

Thanks for posting!
