Hello, Lara -

An interesting subject, but the image needed a lot of work. I tried to correct some of the problems in the attached workshop. Mainly, I corrected the tilt of the overall scene. I used Crop with the Perspective setting, which is part of Photoshop CSX3, but may not be available in other versions (in which case, there are other tools to use).

I was not as successful in correcting the overshadowed sails and boats, since any attempt in doing so overcorrected the water as well. But I think I gave you enough hints to try some post-processing tools of your own.

You have a good eye, since you spotted this scene. Now you need to work on techniques.

Regards,
Dan
