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
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.
