Photo Editing: One Four Challenge January week 1

I’m joining Robyn’s One Four Challenge this month – one photograph processed four different ways over the month.  Here is week 1:

This was taken at Pointe du Grouin on the coast of Brittany.  The light was thrilling that day – I nearly knocked my sister down trying to get some shots before it changed  🙂    The original is below – you can see I gave it a bit more ooomph.  In Sagelight I used the HDR power details to bring up the light.  I didn’t like what it did to the water so I reduced the effect with the Undo brush set at 20.  I also needed to adjust the green which was over-bright which I did using the colour select mask and just desaturated it a bit.
