Wow. You really made this one sing. You were able to coax so much depth out of what looks to be a relatively flat original without making it look overworked at all. Thanks for posting the original and for the lesson in what is possible with a deft hand in processing. Congratulations on the ribbon.

Strongly surging seascape. Pointed POV proves proportionally powerful.

This is extraordinary. The flight of the birds against the raging sea/sky is a sight to behold.

Beautiful photograph!
I love the rich dark blacks with the light hitting the water in different areas. The fog/mist adds a bit of "feeling" to the photograph.
The bird (condor?) adds a nice dramatic touch to the photograph, a stark darkness where there is light.
It also gives the viewer the concept of proportion, as the bird is so small in this vast area!

Great capture.
