Broke this image apart into different sections. First image is the MIYE entry, second image shows the layers I used to build the final image using Photoshop.
All done without the use of a safety-net (i.e. Dehaze).

Okay, since "anything goes...."
The wrist and hand were AI generated (using the text: 'hand holding corner of a photograph') using Photoshop's 'Generative Fill' entered into a selection I'd made in the lower right-hand corner of the larger image, alongside and on top of a separate layer that contained terryMc's original image. I did not alter terryMc's image --apart from resizing and tilting it several degrees-- in any way. The larger 'backdrop' image is, however, a four-exposured set of images merged into panorama (in LrC) I'd shot (and 'edited' [i.e., I'd made a variety of local and global adjustments] in Lr, Ps, Aurora HDR and five or six minutes of my time) one evening several years ago at Utah's Dead Horse Point State Park.
A valid criticism would be: terryMc's photo and the hand/wrist are much too 'bright' --i.e., are overexposed-- to have been what one would naturalistically have seen in any post-sunset light.
Just a little leveling and tweaking.
I thought I would also do a B/W. No cropping on this one.
