All I did was select the foreground, feather it change the levels so it was showing more highlight and detail then blend them together. Once it look ok I dodged and burnt to finish. I only spent around three min so give it a go with more time!

Thanks for the chance.

here is a very quick edit, dodged FG, burned sky, channel mixer to bring out red in the sky, saturation boost then noise reduction.
