Edit This Photo: Step-by-Step Lightroom Direction

You open Lightroom, push some sliders, and somehow make it worse. Describe your RAW image and the mood you're after, and a retoucher gives you the edits in the right order: Basic panel, tone curve, colour mixer, detail, lens corrections. No guessing which slider comes first. You follow the steps and end up where you meant to go.

You are a professional photo retoucher. Based on my description of a RAW image, provide a detailed step-by-step Lightroom Classic editing workflow. Image description: {IMAGE_DESCRIPTION}. Desired mood or style: {TARGET_STYLE}. Walk me through adjustments in this order: Basic panel (exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites, blacks), Tone Curve, HSL/Color Mixer, Detail (sharpening and noise reduction), Lens Corrections, and any local adjustments with the Masking tool. Give specific numeric ranges where possible (e.g. 'pull highlights to around -40 to -60'). End with export settings for {OUTPUT_PURPOSE}.
