The Faithful ReShade
This is a little ReShade preset utilizing Community Shaders for fancy graphical effects like Parallax and Detailed Shadows without the heavy performance cost of an ENB. I took a lot of inspiration from the amazing Vanilla ENB Two, applying subtle color correction, Ambient light, AO and some Clarity to enhance the game's look while preserving it's overall gloomy feel.
The screenshots are taken using Azurite Weathers, however this preset should work with most weather mods out there :)
Hard requirement:
ReShade 5.8.0 or higher
When installing, download these Effects:

Recommended mods for more graphical effects:
- Community Shaders - Install the main file + both Parallax files + a texture pack that supports Parallax (I use Skurkbro's AIO)
- Auto Parallax - helps eliminate some graphical bugs with Parallax enabled meshes
- Screen-Space Shadows - More detailed Shadows on small objects like clutter and grass
- Improved Grass Lighting - What it says, further improved by 'complex grass' mods (I'm using The Grass Must Grow + Folkvangr,3D Pine Grass, Origins of the Forest -patches)
- Grass Collision - Grass moves when the player walks through it
- Grass Sampler Fix - Distant grass appears more dense
- Tree LOD Lighting - Improves the lighting of distant Trees
- Twilight - More realistic lighting during dawn and dusk
- Enhanced Volumetric Lighting and Shadows - An improvement to Skyrim's volumetric Lighting
- Solar Lens Flare Redux - Burns your eyes when you look into the sun :O
- If you struggle with performance: Skyrim Upscaler - Greatly improves FPS if you're GPU limited
