This is the same young gull as the previous image. Here he is leaving his fresh water bath. I liked the way he ruffled his feathers on exiting.
In ACR - raised exposure +1.4. Whites +51. A touch of clarity.
In PSCS6 - Hue/Sat layer on BG and one on FG water. Sand bar cloned out and canvas added to RHS. Nik tonal adjustment.
