My version with DT 4.2.1
Another of your beautiful images.
Spring is definitely not here. Where I am in North Wales it is snowing and has been for 24 Hours.
A good opportunity to play - in GIMP as always - Just local adjustments to contrast and brightness.
Here’s my take on it. ART 1.18.1, Affinity Photo 2.1 beta

Very nice image! I’ve never seen any water (almost including that coming out of the tap LOL!) in my area that approaches that clarity. Wow…
Wow, feels like old school post card on acid
I love it in someway. When playing with this image today in the afternoon I almost got there after too much playing with it
After watching your XMP I found you rely on a LUT but I wonder if it would be replicable with color lookup table or something else …
Once the contrast and details job done maybe gimp would be a better tool for the job …
Indeed, I have used a LUT, it is my first time…
My intention was to make a black and white version.

While I was playing with this beautiful photo and was about to finish it, I remembered a trick that @difrkaguilar recently shared with me.
It’s a false color LUT to visualize the different exposure areas of an image and better compensate for highlights and shadows, but as soon as I turned it on, I liked how it looked and changed my plans.
If you are interested in the LUT, I have no problem sharing it.
The truth is that I do not master gimp.
I’d be delighted
A polarising filter helps of course, but yes, the water in the loch is extremely clear.
Here you have it…@difrkaguilar ,besides sharing the LUT’s… made a graph to put as a watermark (reference).
I would like to thank you again for your generosity
