My favourites are from @HIRAM (grungy!) and @Wocket (the light!).
…
Here is my take: gritty and candid.
1 PhotoFlow → linear Rec.2020 (no clipping).
2 gmic → interpolate unwanted pixels → brighten → grey out chromatic aberration → generate mask for enfuse.
3 enfuse → recover highlights.
4 gmic → remove alpha and interpolate unwanted pixels from enfuse output → brighten.
5 pnmclahe → local contrast enhancement.
6 gmic → recover chroma from pnmclahe output → brighten → crop → sharpen (tone) → resize → sharpen (edge) → vignette (vigrect; try it 
).
