My D7000 is sitting on the shelf by my Z 6, saying, “I can still do good images, like that one you’re staring at, you old fool!”
I picked at grayscaling for a bit, but the colors are too nice. Pretty straightforward filmic curve, just a bit of saturation, and I used my SSF profile for the D7000. In rawproc:

@Thomas_Do: Nice B&W edit! I like the way you apply masks 
@ggbutcher: I used your D7000 SSF profile in my RT edit too, just a bit nicer in the greens in this case then the auto D7000 profile.

Very nice scene and framing ! Even though I cropped to try to put the focus a little bit more on the 2 peoples on the ridge.

Yes, Glenn, I’m aware of your profile (and the great articles describing its creation) and use it sometimes with difficult lighting (thanks!). The profile, being LUT-based, is sensitive to overexposure, so sometimes I have to move it around a bit (input color profile would normally come after exposure in darktable’s pipeline, where I usually have ‘overexposed’ highlights once I correct exposure for the midtones).
Interesting, I haven’t run into that in rawproc. However, I’m doing a rather wonky workflow with regard to color management right now; I work the data in it’s original colorspace, and do the camera → output transform when I display or export. No working profile. Seems to work okay… 
That’s interesting…
Not being familiar with the dt pipeline or the input/output peculiarities of its operators, my surmise is that you have > 1.0 values after setting exposure, and the LUT-based color transform is clipping anything > 1.0 before you have a chance to recover it in a later op.
I think this I think points out a fundamental difference in what I do in rawproc vs. dt; I don’t use an exposure tool to set midtones, then curve things back in bounds; I keep the data between 0.0 and 1.0, and curve it to look nice within those bounds.

Hello István, thank you for sharing, i love the scene and colors and really enjoyed working on it.
I tried to bring attention to the people, while also retaining the space around them.
I made the edit in Darktable 3.4.1

Nice overall edit/crop, but I particularly like the sky in this one. A lot of edits, including my own, have skies that are too sharp/detailed. This one looks just right to me.
