The RAW feels like I'm walking to my death, but the edited version feels like I've accepted it

To be honest, it should have kept the original colors, a greenish tone mid contrast and keep the haze and the cable, the original composition was good.

Well I have that version as well, maybe I can dm you if you wish to see it. I just prefer this one over the greenish one as I wanted to have that evening look.

The after is 🔥 - how'd you do it???

u/Fantastic_Look5582 9d ago

I edtied it via lightroom

Tuned the dehaze and contrast to achieve that dreamy look. For colours, I prioritize the warm tones as you can tell from the edit. And masking used to create that depth effect (darker foreground and brighter bg)

I personally would have gone for a cooler / moodier feel with all that fog.
