As promised, here's the colour version of my previous upload (please see the first comment). I'm a bit late today, too, because I had to fix my Lightroom installation first. I had this wonderful plan of transferring the catalogue to an external hard drive, so I can use it both on my desktop and my new laptop and keep it synchronized on both machines, but something went very wrong, and I ended up with damaged catalogues on both machines plus I lost all editing work I'd done on my laptop on this image last night. Sigh. Luckily I could fix both installations, but I still have to go trouble hunting and see what went wrong exactly, because it really would be so convenient to use one external hard drive for both computers. Maybe it's the fact that my PC still runs on Win 10, while the laptop uses Win 11 – and yes, all you Apple users out there, I know what you will say now: that this would never happen on a Mac ;)
Either way, here's the colour version. It's much wider than the GR III version (18 mm vs. 28 mm), and there are two birds (please press Z) in it as a bonus, too ;) I did some sliding, too, of course, first in Color Efex where I used the preset "HDR-like" as a starting point, and tweaked it to my liking (I've added the filter "Reflector Efex Gold" to brighten the foreground, for instance), next in LR, and I hope you like this version as well. Happy Sliders Sunday, everyone, and have a nice new week ahead!
