A few days back, I posted two pictures of Red Mountain. Many of you commented that in one of them, the top of the mountain (which was underneath the approaching cloud) was too dark and suggested that I try a luminosity mask. I spent 4 hours trying several methods of doing this, all to no avail. I did do some dodging of the top. It made it lighter, but not brighter, so I'm not sure that helped at all. So I decided to go to NIK and see if anything there would help. Here's where I've come to. I think it's a bit "over the top." What do y'all think? I was able to bring up some of the shadows in the dark grasses down front.

Here's the link to how it looked before: https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-572563-1.html
