    When you add the orange/turquoise it’s only on the highlights but not the max light, right? And not over entire highlight?

      Exactly. Is a small filter to give tone to that area. max highlights are barely touched so they can still look powerfull with high value. But, as always, experiment. It wouldn’t be wrong if you also add this filter to max HL and watch the result, maybe you obtain a more interesting atmosphere.

      Cheers

        Perfect, trying analogus color scheme, weathering, want some saturation, interest, ambience to the piece. Before I was trying to mix in the orange and yellow into the colors and it was just muddy. Thanks!
