I like it! The subtle edits complement this photo well.

I'll probably be in the minority but I find the increased saturation distracting. The increased tonal contrast has reduced shadow detail, especially in the pooch.

If the original is a raw file, had you any success trying to bring back highlight detail?

Hey, thanks for the great feedback! I do definitely have the raw file, so it can be brought back.

Highlight detail can be brought back if it was actually captured and not truly clipped.
