The Corcovado Peak, in Rio de Janeiro City.

I only noticed that someone had posted a WS after I had done this one.

I wanted to see what I could do about the haze. What I have done:



1- Created a duplicate layer



2- Blend it in overlay mode using a mask to make the water transparent (to leave it unchanged). That was needed so that part would get too dark.



3- Duplicate that layer and blend it in burn mode with only 7% opacity



4- On the process the sky went even more white, so I selected it and applied a blue/cyan gradient.



5- Adjusted the saturation and curves of everything but the sky.



6- A bit of USM and sharpen.

Paulo,

usei inicialmente os níveis automáticos do Photoshop, em seguida aumentei o contraste e reduzi o brilho.

Espero que goste.

Abraços

Wagner.
