at the behest of a couple people in this thread (@Masterpiga @Terry) throwing my hat in the ring here to show my film inspired style

luts used in this edit are from the rawtherapee collection of haldcluts, specifically the pro 400h pulled 1 and the portra 400 pushed 1, in that order.

Since @sahuaro.senorita showed his hand, I guess that I will have to show mine:

I played a bit with the hues and brightened up the temple to make it look even shinier.

Very nice shot, @Sunhillow, thanks for letting us play with it!

With Art 1.26.2.
At first, I wanted to darken the sky a little to make the clouds stand out better, but in the end, it’s this bright sky that brings out the gold color.

I’m not a huge fan of frames, but you made that one look great. The frame colors match/complement the colors in the photo.

Thanks, Tim. I picked them out of the photo.

Would be a great postcard!
I love the colours even though they are vastly too saturated :sunglasses:

Nice edit Jamal and welcome…Just a note for playraw it’s customary include your side car ie your xmp file and downsample and use some compression to keep your JPG sizes down…users can get a high res version using your XMP if needed

You do this when you export from DT. I export mine for landscape at 2000 on the width and 80 percent compression.

You mention LR…if this is a LR ie Adobe edit just a heads up the forum is for open source software. Edits should be done using FOSS.

We can reference LR when it makes sense for context but LR edits should be avoided…If this is not what you meant ignore my comments

Another try: ART with AgX filmsim:
