Thanks for all your input, learning quite a bit by studying the various xmp’s. Also, fun to see the various takes, the tone can be quite different 
Hello everyone,
Here is a version with the development version of darktable 4.1 and the new sigmoid and highlight reconstruction modules.

Nice one, thanks!
Looking forward to sigmoid (and the highlight reconstruction module) landing in stable. Those might make me finally stop being lazy and compile master
There should be lots of builds floating around and its easy to run multiple versions… or wait
Are you on windows? If so, how about this: Nightly PKG · Workflow runs · darktable-org/darktable · GitHub
I believe it is in master now … If that is stable for you.
Thank you for the challenge, this is my attempt.
Opened in RT and edited using GIMP with GMIC filters.
Simple local contrast applied twice with the second blended using multiplied function. A gradient mask used to protect the skies.
Saturation increased
Mean curvature blur set at 3 to reduce noise
Interesting interpretations, thanks a lot! I’ll give DT 4.4.x a go, it should have some nice goodies.
Almost looks frosty
I enjoy the dreamy atmosphere.
Thanks! Is it me, or does it seem like there’s a bit of a dark ‘layer’ over the image? The sun is nicely visible.
I did this with a blend, using enfuse. Perhaps I should have put a brighter image into the “pot” to lighten the darker parts.
