Not that it needed it but i wanted to see how it would look if we made changes to barrel distortion. I used a correction angle of 50.5 in an attempt to make the tower stand more upright.

Changed input levels
10, .88, 245

Applied USM ehq 100%

Hope you like it.

Just heavily warmed light thought it might fit the mood of the picture better, guess it's just personal opinion.

Changed gray input levels to 80

+10 Saturation

Decreased gamma to 1.15

Depending upon how much you care about the foreground definition you could probably go more extreme, I just made very subtle changes. Hope you like it.

Brought White input levels to 191

100% USM ehq

In case I went a little overboard on the white input maybe something like 210 would be a happy medium.

Brought down higlights a little as I found them to be slightly overwhelming.
-41% compression factor of 93

Changed midtone input levels in the blue channel to 70 as I found it helped the foliage contrast better with this great blue sky.

Applied a cooling filter #82 @ 15%, I did not preserve luminosity.

Brought down highlights 30% while bringing up shadow depth a hundred fold

Increased contrast by 10 and brightness by 4

The more I look at it I realize I may have went slightly overboard with the cooling filter, but you get the idea.

Set white point to the brightest part of the image which appears to be on her shoulder. Brought output levels down to 235. The changes are very subtle but I hope you like it. Sorry I may have inadvertently ruined your nice drop shadow in the process.
