Fantastic processing Raul. I normally avoid the blown whites, but it just works awesome in this instance.
Thanks I am taking advantage of something I have noticed about whites and Sony cameras. For some reason Sony cameras (this is the A7R III) handle extreme whites in a somewhat appealing manner. Maybe it is the result of some clipping of values... Something interesting happens when the whites are falling off the edge of the histogram. You get a certain luminosity while retaining very nice values and contrast in the shadows. I did not experience this with my old Nikon D810, perhaps because it had more latitude and handled whites "better" Here is another one of those that have that luminosity and retain the contrast in the dark areas.
