A different interpretation of the colors in my DT 5.6 edit. Again I hit the AgX contrast slider to lift the colors. I like the color contrast of the warm sunlight illuminating the side of the rock and the blue sky.

Super nice! Now I need to try again to recreate this…
Very nice capture.
There was decent contrast in the linear raw, good exposure. I just added a really shallow S-tone curve. No color shenanigans, you’ve got all you need in the original data.

I dont think this xmp will work on others people darktable because I am using some experimental dcp profile support.

Lucky not just with the tourists, but the light too! It was extremely cloudy the day I was there.
Leaned more into the purple tones. Spektrafilm-dt with my usual settings.

I tried to load your xmp but darktable 5.6.1 and the ‘contrast and texture’ build immediately segfaults when the thumbnail appears in lighttable now and deleting the xmp didn’t fix it 
deleting the raw file helped though.
I used the latest development snapshot. No new modules were used, so I thought, it should work anyway.

Wow, beautiful!
And found it not easy at all. Easy to overdo. last edit was add a bit of blue over the whole scene 
Not very sure with this edit…

As usual (for me), cropped, worked on distance / 3D, foreground detail, luminosity balance and what I assumed was the way it looked in person. Slightly dramatized the sky to keep it within the same tonal range as the rest of the background.
