i put it into iphoto and it looked better to me already. i went to the pic by clicking on it and 'borrowed' it from there.
there's a lot of beautiful, interesting textures going on in this pic, but the light was too dull to bring out the richness of the colours, especially the warm brown of the sand.
the frozen splitsecond of the foam, for instance, and the glimpse-of-infinity in the dark water at the left, midway up, above it.
i did a little tweaking, with contrast and sharpness mostly, to bring out the character of the clouds.
hope it comes through ok... ~"When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate." Karl Jung~
I wouldn't have sharpened though - or at least not on the stones on the beach. You can't be me, I'm taken
the only thing that was stopping it come through for me was a washy diffused greyness, which had a banalising effect, imo. ~"When an inner situation is not made conscious, it appears outside as fate." Karl Jung~
