0:00 Intro
For this photo the main goal was to correct the vertical lines, bring back some more brightness as well as some more warmth to give it more of a sunset feeling. 95 percent of the editing was done in the Camera Raw editor, while I used Photoshop to clean up the image and add a little more glow to it.

0:12 1. Straighten your photo
Straightening lines in Photoshops camera raw editor (or Photoshop) is very easy. You can find all the settings you need in the geometry tab. Photoshop offers a bunch of settings which try to fix things automatically (horizon, vertical lines, and so on). I personally prefer to use the sliders just below those settings however since I have more control over the outcome!

2:50 2. Basic Raw Adjustments
I started by adjusting the vertical lines in the geometry tab until they appeared to be straight. Then, I switched the profile to Adobe Landscape for more saturation. I adjusted the white balance temperature to give the photo some more warmth. As the raw was a bit too dark, I brought up the exposure, the whites and the blacks. Also, I dropped the highlights and the shadows to get a well-balanced exposure.

4:40 3. Local Adjustments
First, I added a radial gradient on the left to add some glow. Here, I increased the blacks, dropped the dehaze and played around with the white balance temperature for more warmth. Then, I added a linear gradient over the sky to make the top part a little darker. Using the select subject mask, I targeted the pavilion in the center and slightly raised the whites to increase brightness.

6:58 4. Color Grading
I skipped the HSL stuff, went straight to the split toning where I added a warm tone to the highlights and mid-tones and a cold tone to the shadows.

8:31 5. Photoshop
I cleaned up the image using the spot healing brush and the clone stamp tool (worked like a charm on the vertical railing part in the near foreground). Then, I used a soft light layer to introduce more glow on the left side.
