Photo description / processing

One of the main goals of my trip to SAO. I shot at the very end, literally for an hour before sunset. Shootings on October 6, 7, 8, 2024 Maybe it was in vain to install the Optolong L-Ultimate filter, but nothing can be done now. I probably approached processing about 10-15 times and everything into the trash, this one I don't really like either, God willing I'll reshoot it next year. While processing, I remembered a joke- I see - someone's walking, carrying a sack, I say to him: "Stop! Who's walking!" And he swings at me. Well, I'm in the ditch. Etc.
