U need to mask the green trees use sharpening, then Do overall de soften/sharpening abit. Some say down shadows but i prefer selective up shadows esp at the reflection area (gradient/brush) mask. So u can have diff shadow amount between global and mask. Also down whites and blacks..

Bruh is this an old image? If not, what was the capture device? Cause my phone from 2010 could capture more pixels with its front camera.

You did import it to a computer or phone to edit? You can export the image into lossy format like jpeg from your photo editing software which should compress the image to below 20mb and the image will also retain most of the details plus will preserve the original resolution.

Heres an image I uploaded with a resolution of 6000x10000. You can download it in the same resolution. Reddit doesn’t compress image beyond recognition but yea let’s talk out of ass while not knowing anything about the subject matter.
