Sunrise at Adder Rock. This rock is in so many of my shots. I've narrowed the images down a bit. I remember my feet being very cold and wet and the tripod shivered every time a little wave sneaked it's way across the sand. I was certainly aware of camera shake.
In ACR - Contrast added, shadows increased and vibrance added. IN the HSL Panel All sliders increased a tad.
In PSCS6 - Curves adjustment layers on FG and BG. Reduced blues in the Hue/Sat layer. Cropped off bottom.
The original had a bit more on the bottom that included the whole reflection of the tree but I felt the bright sunlit ripples were a bit much.

Agreed if you could redo it, I would love to see ever so slightly room on the RHS. But with landscape, the opportunity usually don't come twice. I would suggest a slice off of the reflection just because it looks like it was clipped. I think you process this well, Glennie.
Gorgeous! I love the sky and how the waves are breaking on the rocks. Beautiful tonalities with lovely peach colors in the mid-FG. Excellent processing!
I agree to just a bit more on the right. Just a bit. And I do want to see the entire tree reflection, or as much of it as there is before the water becomes sand.
The brightness on the edge does pull my eye here, but some local darkening of highlights could do wonders.
