Took quite some adjustments to light brightness and also some colors, 
The result looks much more natural though. I think the gamma problem was 
what made many of my scenes look strange somehow.

Maybe not the final version, but to show the difference I've attached 
the version with assumed_gamma 1.0, file and display gamma 2.2

But it looked very bland with those settings so I used the color-curve 
tool in GIMP to enhance the contrast.
