The original image was Red Ribbon winner in Brown contest. But due to my ignorance I missed it because I have cloned out some stones on the beach which was not allowed in basic editing so was disqualified. Anyway this image is still my ever time favorite. I think this is nice edited version than in the contest.
This is a marvelous photograph and the title suits it well. I agree that this edit is better than the one you had in the challenge. The tones are amazing - very nice work both with the capture and the edit!
