 Straight from the camera, absolutely nothing done on the computer - however I utilized the camera's ability to increase dynamic range to the max, using internal HDR features and highlight tone priority etc - which I hope counts as a rule broken :) Shot with a NiSi 9-stop VND. This might feel too dark but the brightness is exactly what I experienced on location. If this wasn't a minimum editing ruleset I would however had brightened it up quite a bit.

You might have added some contrast? Looks good to me.
