I really like the unique perspective your situation set up, and your processing and border work fine.

Given that it looks as though your original was overexposed, I think your high-key approach works well. I like how with such a minimum of data, you can still get such a sense of the wispy nature of the fur.

I definitely prefer this version -- I think it fits the feel of the place much better.

I make all my B&W/duotones "by hand" so I don't know how much control that action gives you, but I think I'd have used a somewhat different "second" color ... not sure though If I'd go warmer or cooler -- I usually experiment a bit to see what works.

I don't think it's oversaturated, in fact, I'd be tempted to mask off the sea and sky and make them even a little more blue.

You definitely brought out the detail, and gave a different "feel" to the day.
