This beach quickly became one of my all time favourite places when I was finally able to walk on it at the start of April. I can't wait till October when we return to Mull and I get to, hopefully, spend a little more time here.
Thanks to Ecce Signum for another lovely holiday XxX
This has been my first attempt at fully editing a shot without following some sort of tutorial or just doing 'basic stuff' so I don't mess it up!! All I have done to the shot is...
Convert from RAW
Dodge and Burn the sky and a little of the sea. Also burnt a little of the darker sand and footprints to bring out more detail.
Hue/Saturation
Contrast
Resize
Sharpen
Prediction? These days I have no idea why DPC'ers vote the way they do so have no idea what this will achieve :o(

You know, now that I look at it a bit longer, I do recognize Andi. When voting in the challenge, I thought the scene looked familiar but couldn't quite put my finger on it. And I really liked this one when voting (still do, of course). Very good job with the editing!
Sweet! I like the huge DOF for this image, and the changes from sand to sea to sky. I am happy that you got the opportunity to go to the beach to get this shot.
