Which to my eye is much more pleasing and more like I remember the sunset - it was a fairly intense sunset, so I deem this to be in the saturated end of realistic.
Looking forward to your interpretations DSC00912.ARW (24.3 MB)
Hello,
I really like the atmosphere and the graphic of this picture.
I tried to highlight it by playing on the contrasts and the brightness of the colours.
Here is my interpretation with DT 4.3 and the Sigmoid flow
I really like how your edit preserves the contrast near the railroad tracks. To me they are an important part of the image, drawing the eye to the center.
My take using DT 4.2 and trying technique to manage saturated hightlights, I don’t know if it fits this composition though…
Congrats for the perfect framing ! Nice subject( and timing as well but the hardest thing is sometime knowing what you want, right ?
Thank you very much for your message.
I really like to use the Sigmoid module in combination with two instances of the local contrast module for highlights and lowlights.
Greetings from Brussels,

I really like the clarity & contrast of the original but I also like the increased colour of the edited version. Either way they are great images, beautifuly framed. I suspect you had planned this shot for a while before getting the perfect sunset.
