Why all this yellow in highlights?

Hi Steven… I think you have nailed it as near as possible with the tools available in DT! I have brought up the exposure and added a little contrast to your style on this image and it is virtually identical tonally to the JPEG I generated form Olympus Workflow - the green is still off but like you say, Olympus are adjusting colours in camera based on the scene I think, hard to replicate globally. Who knows, these are a long time ago with the EM-5 I no longer have and I may have select landscape mode or something in camera who knows!!

Just shows what DT is capable of though - well done! :clap: :clap:

Glad my style worked, at least to a degree! I’d try using the color zones module to tweak those greens - it’s a very good module IMO for smaller specific adjustments. You can start withe HSL preset if you like, gives a convenient starting point.

The coloring of the sky is very different, depending on the filmic color science version chosen. My image is processed with v7, which I find works well with this very lovely photo.
