i usually like this kind of border, but I think it detracts from the image since there are no true blacks in it. I think if you had switched the black and white in the border, it would have drawn more attention to the clouds, which are lovely. Best of luck!

beautiful , excellent processing. Still I feel that something is missing to make this perfect. I can't really explain what is missing , maybe something of interest on the sand. Anyway an 8 from me.
