I must thank everyone for the rawplaying. So many different approaches, some subtle, some not so subtle :). And as @David_Butcher noted, i really dig the explanations of @ggbutcher and @pphoto of what they are doing / trying to achieve.
Thanks!

Nice shots. Very atmospheric!
This attempt is based on my second entry of [PlayHalfBaked] Unclipped sunset panorama - #17 by afre with no crop, 2 tweaked parameters and an additional vignette. As follows gmic filter pixels, reverse softlight, brightness-contrast, local contrast, brightness-contrast, softlight, multiply, decrease chroma, vignette, sharpen-resize
Adds to the mystery. Zoom and enjoy!

darktable+gimp/gmic
darktable was mainly filmc and local contrast x2
gimp all gmic filters used equalize local histograms, denoise and provia film simulation

Stunning photographs. Hence a very gentle treatment of the first one in GIMP.
Darkened the foreground and a little at the sides with a blurred, hand drawn mask. The remainder done with curves. Also a slight crop.
