Gee, nothing interesting here. I just made a mistake.

Isn't there a way to adjust the color balance of shadows in
lightroom?

Well, I could use brushes and so on, but it is:
1. Laborsome
2. Imprecise
3. Ultimately I don't have any experience with that.

At the end I try to process my pictures in such a way that they could be printed. I am certain I have the ability (me, not the computer or program) to apply brushes in such a way that would produce printable outcome.

The gradient filters could help, but they don't seem to have WB controls.

I think that your rework looks a lot better.

Thank you, although I think otherwise :-).

How would the photo work in black and white?  Or even just slightly
desaturated?

I just tried. You see, the light on the tree leaves would then either disappear (B/W conversion) or be much less prominent (partial desaturation).

I am starting to think that this picture requires either more competent processor (not me), or this and a software with somewhat more capable tools for local editing...
