There ya go.
Keep playing with Contrast, iris, sharpness and shutter and you’ll dial it in.

Getting much better! Id lower that sharpness and try backing the NR down a smidge, and maybe a bit more HLC, and a bit more contrast.

Its not an ideal angle so you're fighting that. But getting there, congrats.
