Last week I was in Syracuse, Italy.

Have fun!
Great pictures!
My try with Raw Therapee and the first one:
Btw is the camera already in lensfun db? Autocorrection of distorsion seems to lead to strange things.

A grainy black and white attempt using GIMP 2.10.8 and G’MIC Qt.
Edit: Thought of using GIMP because the main building seem to reflect lot more light than the other parts of the picture. So I selectively darkened it and the pillar. Black and white because there seem to be certain timelessness in the main subjects. I thought that the color rendition will make them contemporary!!
Magical evening.

This crop converts an informative photo about a jetty into a human interest story photo. Now we are not curious to know about the boats but the couple!
Honestly I’ve seen that couple only after I’ve opened the raw file 
Here is my attempt at the final shot of this wonderful triad. A Cinemascope view!

Merci @age for the prospection excuse, lovely light and places; fellow photon’s diggers

Then proceeded to G’mic within Gimp for a postcard type of thing, and I mean carpenter’s “thing”

That’s it, now a pancaking gif and my wishes for a good 2019, haya salud!
Here’s my contribution to this nice picture.
And this is the video of its creation:
My take on 196.
1. PhotoFlow → HL mode (blend) → AMaZE → linear Rec2020 (no clipping) → 32f
2. gmic → crop (φ) A → sharpen (high freq contrast) B → HLG (A B curve) → adjust brightness, contrast (A B curves) → blend (A B darken) → increase chroma → sharpen (LoG) → resize
My take on 214.
1. PhotoFlow → HL mode (blend) → AMaZE → linear Rec2020 (no clipping) → 32f
2. gmic → crop (1.5) → sharpen (high freq contrast) → blend (retinex, hlg) → adjust brightness, contrast (curves) → increase chroma (C curve) → sharpen (LoG) → resize
My take on 323. The aim was to brighten up the whole scene so that you could see everything clearly. This is dedicated to those who have questioned why I don’t convert to sRGB. Well, here you go! 
1. PhotoFlow → HL mode (blend) → AMaZE → linear sRGB (no clipping) → 32f
2. gmic → filter pixels → crop (1.5) → sharpen (high freq contrast) → blend (retinex, hlg) → adjust brightness, contrast (curves, hlg variant) → reduce chroma (C curve) → sharpen (LoG) → resize
Zoom 100% and enjoy!
Here’s my contribution with darktable 2.60
Oups, thanks heckfloss ^^ update

Need to clean my desk now, because the seawater flooded it from the right of your picture 
@heckflosse I am taking that as a compliment. Are you sure it isn’t your tears of joy?! 
Now, I fully expect you to wax poetic on those threads on creativity and photography.
Thank you ^^
