first step:
recover highlights with exposure compensation and highlight compression sliders (check the highlight reconstrunction button )
second step:
brightness/ contrast sliders ( but the curves tool is way more powerful)
third step:
white balance with the eye dropper
last step:
sharpen

The output of macOS Filmulator into RawTherapee. (The reds purples pinks violets and oranges were rather artifacty so I gutted them)

Gave it also a try with DT:
Couldn’t restore the highlights.

merci @BayerSe 4 ice & pips with ice picks {blood, ice, vodka, 1 anchovie}
photoflow (using channel mixer & DR and TM)
gimp and g’mic (a bit if a blotchi work, anyway…)
pola{r} detail
cheers and a good weekend for y’all =)
PS
forgot to say that this reminded me of the terror

Someone turned the thermostat up too high and messed with the laws of physics too.

@Joan_Rake1 I don’t know what to say. It isn’t just global warming: it’s hell on earth.

Here is my try. Personally I prefer the BW version.

Thanks for sharing.
Rawtherapee → highlights recovery
Darktable → tone mapping
Gimp → wavelet sharpening

The unadorned image had vignetting in the corners, so I started with a crop. I didn’t mess with white balance because the bluish tint gives the feeling of “Cold”…
A curve was the next operation; blacks weren’t at black, so I scooched the lower control point over to put them near 0. I put in another couple of points to make an “s” curve to increase the contrast.
I sharpened the full-sized image (I don’t normally do this) to put some “sparkle” in the ice.
A bit of saturation because I love the blue colors that come out of ice.
Resize for posting and my standard post-resize minimal sharpen.
Result:
Then, because I thought there might be a better way to put depth in the composition, a crop:
Nice raw!

In trying to simplify my workflow above, I go with @msd way of recovering highlights in DT, and his inverted graduated density to pop the foreground. I also replaced wavelet sharpening in gimp by the highpass filter. So, I’m only DT now.

Nice crop.
@ggbutcher I didn’t like how the crop chopped off the flock of birds. See @Thomas_Do ’s for comparison.

Great idea - I think the scenery makes for an excellent B&W image.

Haven’t been here for quite some time, so I thought I’d do a playraw again.
Basics done in RT:

Then painted in some subtle highlights and shadows in Gimp, just to add a little shine:
