0:00 Intro
The main goal for this long exposure photo was to enhance the colours some more by adding more blue and purple tones and thus making it look like a nice twilight photo. Also, I want to bring more attention to the mountains in the centre for which I added more details. Since the editing isn’t too complicated for this shot, I also wanted to do everything using Lightroom Classic only (plus the Nik Collection Plug in).

0:44 1. Basic Raw Adjustments
I activated the lens corrections and switched the camera profile to Adobe Standard first. Then I carefully increased the white balance temperature until I was satisfied with the overall colours of the photo. Right away I dropped the highlights to reveal more details from the brighter clouds. Then I added whites, shadows and a bit of blacks to brighten the image up some more. At this point the picture started to look flat, to counter that I simply added contrast. Also, I added a lot of vibrance since I wanted the image to be saturated.

2:20 2. Local Adjustments
I added a graduated filter over the sky and dropped the exposure to create a vignetting effect. Then, I used a radial filter over the mountains in the centre and in the reflection to boost the details and brightness by increasing clarity and whites.

3:30 3. Colour Grading
To get the desired colours I increased the blue saturation and dropped the green saturation. Then, I used split toning to apply a warm, almost purple like tone to the highlights and a cold, blue tone to the shadows of the photo.

4:58 4. Final editing
With the spot removal tool, I got rid of the sensor spots first. Then, used the Nik Collection plug in to apply the polarization effect which further helps improving those colours.
