How should I process this shot? (see attached)

Hey,

See attached image.
My take is here Beautiful light from the setting sun on Flickr - Photo Sharing!

Long version:
I took this shot while hiking to the Mission Peak with the set setting behind us (and shining on the peak) and some dark clouds behind the peak. There was partial cloud cover over the sun, with the top half the peak in its shadow.

I set the camera to Daylight WB but was still unhappy with the jpg that it produced. Attached is the original jpg.

My version after post-processing is here:


Camera: Canon EOS Rebel XSi / 450D
Lens: Canon 55-250mm IS
EXIF: f/4.0 1/200s @55mm ISO200
My LR processing:
Temp:-18
Tint: +5
Blacks: 13
Contrast: +40
HSL Luminance: Blue: +25, Purple: -35

I have a feeling I messed up in the processing. I am moderate red-green colorblind and maybe I just don't see what you see but I feel extremely difficult to figure out the right white balance.

I am looking for your thought process while processing this image ...

Thanks,
Amit
