Think you uploaded the wrong RAW file (1218/1217)?
LOL, never upload in a rush 
Thanks! Fixed.

There are strange artifacts in the sky. And why is this file so huge?

Seemed so simple; just lift the shadow and done. But that was not to be…
First, I had to retrieve the primaries manually from camconst.json, exposed a logic flaw in my code to be fixed forthwith. Then, I had a really hard time with rawproc filmic lifting the shadows without blowing the high clouds, or flattening those low foreground clouds. I tried a control point curve but that didn’t do any better so I went back to filmic. Finally, I added some color saturation put some contrast into the landscape. Oh I also had to crop out what appears to be the black frame from the sensor, so now I need to chase what I’m hoping is a libraw foo.
Nice image.
Also tried my luck with a somewhat grainy B&W version:
GIMP 2.10.20 (base done in darktable 3.2.1)
Don’t seem to be able to get the blacks in the lower left the way I want them…
Yes! Glad you mention this, I thought it was me for a second there.
EDIT: I had another go at a B&W version. The lower left of the previous version was not to my liking and I also remembered really liking the evenly grained T-Max 3200 film back when and was curious if I could approach that. The one stone and two birds thingy.

My take. I used darktable 3.2.1. Lots of fiddling to get the look I was going for.
