I agree with Luis that brightening it up some might be something to consider. To show you what I was thinking, in photoshop, I used a curves layer and using the adjustment tool I dragged the up the whites. I also went into selective colors and subtracted a few points of black from the whites. I will leave it up to on whether these adjustments are an enhancement. Your image your vision. Thanks for sharing a lovely image.
Regards,
