Brewing

THE PHOTO:
When I returned to Whangamata at the beginning of this month, I couldn’t resist returning to my favourite piece of beach. The weather wasn’t as great as last time, but as you’ll see from the post processing below – it wasn’t this bad either. Further proof in tomorrow’s shot.

POST-PROCESSING:

As a reference, here’s the ‘before’ shot:
