 In RAW, sharpen, reduce blue in "Luminance".
In PS, clone out 2 ugly seagulls and some of trash, sharpen, levels, reduced some highlights in shadows/highlights, no crop, resize, border, save.
I predict top 50, but maybe 5.0.

One of my favourites, love the simplicity, easy on the eyes, quiet for the mind.

Nice scenery. Almost too much of it IMO. How would it look with just a thin slice of that sky and some of the left edge cropped out?
