The view from Giau Pass at sunset looking into the sun direction. At dusk fell the sky was covered with clouds while the warm colors of the sunset were called the road between the mountains, I captured this with a couple exposures to have the right images to work on digital blending and fix the sky with the foreground
WORKFLOW EXPLANATION
I made a exposure blend from the brighter exposure in order to recover the sky informations and using luminosity masks applied to darks i lightened the shadows on the mountain below. I applied a warm filter to the shadows and I increased details to the whole frame, I also launched a orton effect decreasing the effect to 10%.
Always using my panel I decreased noise with a dedicated filter and as last step I sharpened the image for web saving
I always hope you will find this usefull. I like to ear that from you!
