Forgotten that I did this one in July before the beach was changed by the hurricanes this year. This is low tide and you had a lot of flat sand in the morning giving nice reflections of the clouds. Now at low tide, the sand has been carried out creating a offshore sandbar and heightening the rip current threat with a big drop off at the shoreline - no flat, wet sand at low tide now.
I processed this one in Lab color converted it back to RGD and then played around in Levels. I used the RGB and Blue channels along with the white dropper to select different parts of the blue sky around the sun. This skewed the colors. I tried it until I got an affect I liked.
I used Lab color as I could not get the color I wanted in the sky in RGB. Stitched from 5 images overlapped 25%.
