When I develop, I try to eliminate overexposed, underexposed, and out-of-gamut areas. I first obtained something I liked and then went back and adjusted it until I achieved that end. However, this doesn’t look as good as I would like. I checked some of the other dt images, and found that they had substantial areas overexposed, underexposed, or out-of-gamut. Will this not matter if these images were printed? What would those areas look like?

I was working on my understanding of channel mixer and tried mainly to do something with the sky. Kept the rest of the image to a more muted look. Used channel mixer five times.
Edit: I didn’t realize until step 14 that base curve was still on; at that point I turned it off.
