Stretched the image to the left to remove part of the slope on the left. Used the warp tool to stretch the road and widen it to the right. Used content aware crop to add a few millimetres to the right of the frame. Your edit seems to emphasize the blue/orange complementary colors in the image, Chris. I especially like the way you handled the road as it now appears to "sweep" us into the image.

I made a couple of very minor changes to the raw file in PSE 2024. Took into Topaz Studio and applied the Fine Marker Drawing effect Took a duplicate of my initial edit back into Topaz Studio and applied the Ancient 3D Sketch effect. In PSE I blended those two effects together using the Darker Colour blend mode. Added a drop of colour to the sky using a gradient at a very low opacity and then added a couple of clouds to complete the image. Oh and somewhere along the way I did use a couple of levels adjustments.

I had wondered if someone might create a sketch effect, Lillias. You have created an interesting twist with your selection of filters/techniques.

Here is a black and white version made from my previous take. Converted to B&W using a gradient map and tweaked the tones with a Hue/Saturation layer. Darkened the sky with a levels adjustment.
