This is - in my humble opinion and to my weak eyes - a very solid, profound, professional, convincing solution for a post processing edit!

It is "hyper realistic" and shows so many details as the photographer might have wished to see.

For me personally, your solution could be the base to a new session of transformations. You made a brilliant photo of the original picture - and yet I would not hang it on my wall since the elements do not want to speak to me... (- what is not your fault! Please don't let me be misunderstood on this!)

For those photos of mine which I like but with which I am not satisfied - I should all give to you for perfectioning! Because in this you are the master, it seems to me.
