Levels, selective color, hue/sat, resize, USM, neat image produced the gauziness as the last step; overcooked it and faded it with "edit/fade neat image"

I love this photot's colors and wide scope. It almost looks like a painting. I only wish that the birds were a little sharper because they get lost in the water
IMHO this picture does not lend itself to our 640 pixel world. I'm guessing that those distracting white dots in the background are birds. In a larger print or a 35 mm slide presentation, that would be obvious. IMHO (again!), you would have been better to zero in on the birds in the foreground. There are enough that they could have carried the picture and the concept.
