some showers transfered this idyllic town in a dramatic way, there's some water drops on the camera lens that I haven't been able to remove.
the most of the PP is done by using adjustment layers and different modes.

1. first I created one adjustment layer, levels to get the right sky and used multiplied inverted used withe to get the skyl in the rest of the picture.
2. created a new adjustment layer and used level as default and inverted and used screen mode and then use white or lighter grey to get out the highlights.
3. an other adjustment layer, saturation 40% inverted it to blak and used a light grey or whit too get out the colors.
and i'm finished.
Ity is a bit hard to describe when you cant really show it with the PS interface.
