So this one got some more than just the usual 'adjust contrast, desaturate, increase vibrance' treatment. After seeing what someone made of my fog post with some local contrast etc, I thought I'd experiment a bit. So I first did some work on the overall picture, toning down highlights, increasing ambiance, desaturating and setting the white balance a bit further to the cold side.

But then I added some extra darkening to the shadows of the road to increase its local contrast and lit up the shadowy regions of the mountains. Somehow that makes the image work a lot better now imho.

just downloaded the software and gave it a try - same issue as most others. It doesn't ingest the pixel-wise correction matrix and therefore gives an image that is blighted and has a red-shift in the middle, while getting some vignette in the corners...
