As I never saw the original image, its hard to say what it is you are trying to achieve. I like to look at a picture and it tell me what it SHOULD BE. I may have an Idea of an image I’m trying to create, but know when the image isn’t right for that idea.
I think the effect you gave took a lot of work, BUT its not right for this particular photo. I’m guessing it would have had much more “pop” in vibrant colour or a high contrast B & W with a sun burst popping up from behind the mountains.
Hope this helps
Warmly
