 Didn't keep track of all my steps on this one - sorry!

Edited to add: The desat was intentional. I wanted it to look more like a sketch. I can see the point though about missing the reds when the blues are still fairly vivid. I may go back and work on this one some more.

I'm curious what steps you might have used, now. Many of the TA presets help saturate the colors, not mute them. Great shot, though. Quite painterly.

The building does look like a sketch, and the sky like a watercolor, how pretty! I love the perspective and those converging towers. Sweet!

This really emphasizes the architecture and texture. Very dramatic. I sort of miss the red color of the stone and flag though, especially with so much color in the sky. However it is an interesting image.
