Let’s see what you make of it!

Love the image, especially the sky! Has to be in B&W and soft in my opinion…
Thanks for sharing!

Amazing image, thanks.
Played a little with RGB curves and warm shadows - cold midtones - warm highlights seemed kinda nice.

Nice rendition, thanks! There’s a hint of a halo visible even on the preview screen, though. It’s clearly evident if you pixel-peep, which is of course not someone something one should normally do, but I checked 1:1 because I had seen it on the preview.

You are right, I didn’t even notice before … now you gave me a new challenge 
I tried a very high-contrast, rich color approach. Not at all my usual processing style.
with Filmulator:
- Auto CA Correct On
- Profiled Vignetting on
- Temperature 5000
- Exposure Comp +1.5
- Shadow Rolloff Point 0.0338
- Film Area 116.8
- Drama 100
- White Clipping Point 0.46
- Shadow Brightness 30
- Highlight Brightness 1000

We’re here to play.
I’ve also tried a more contrasty approach (though not as contrasty as yours, more like the one from @dirksagwitz), and I liked that version, too.
Impressive mountain, nice capture, inspiring image to play with. So many possibilities to edit !

@kofa I forgot to congratulate you on this frame. I will work on it when I have the time. It will be fun.
