Stitched from 5 handheld shots with photomerge (reposition only).
The original after stitching is posted to the workshop.
To that I applied following postprocessing:
more contrast
- in rgb mode a duplicate layer
- to that applied the red channel to the composite with normal blending
- set the layer to luminosity mode
- flattened image
even more contrast and more color
- in lab mode added a curves adjustment layer with strongly exagerated a and b channels
- applied the l-channel to the layer mask to reduce curves effect
- reduced curves layer opacity (to taste)
sharpening
- in lab mode sharpened the l-channel with usm twice (first time 500/1/1, second time 100/1/1)
frame and save
- frame via layer style, bevel and emboss
- to rgb mode and save for web and devices
