Sorry, busy couple of days!
Here is what I have done. First is ONLY what I did in raw
Second I applied a standard curve that I use for nearly every image.
I didn't do anything artistic and creative. THat's for you to do.
I think we need to look and analyze your steps in editing a bit more and get you to where you are getting the base image clean and clear first. THen you can go on with the artistic stuff like the color version you did here.

What program are you editing with?

I don't know, as for editing or postprocessing, what you have done with the photo.
What software did you use? And what kind of things you adjusted?

I like your first version much more (even if it looks too soft or not that contrasty). The edited version looks somehow too sharpened or too pixelated.

Here's what I did in photoshop:
- auto levels
- adjustment of curves (I just pointed the white and black balance)
- little 'sharpen > unsharp mask'

I don't know if you like it? I don't know if that would be better. But for me it looks clearer.

i liked your edit very much. Thank you very much ...my editing is always random and non recoverable

I like your version that you have done nothing to..... I like the greyness, maybe inc contrast ever so slightly and color sat just a little to bring out the gold. It needs to be straightened also.

yes, Mully; i am infamous for my post processing skills
Thank you very much

I like your version that you have done nothing to.....

Me too.

.....as i have mentioned......
Thank you so much indeed

Thank you MLeek; i always proceed by trial and error methods, which i seldom record in memory; a really unprofessional approach
Thank you indeed for your edit and helps
