Newly edited my Oyster Fisherman capture back from 2010 in El Salvador. Was using a cheap Fujifilm point and shoot at the time (poor med student and not wanting to get robbed) so a lot of issues like underexposure with the original jpeg. Put it through Topaz Labs AI software in order to convert JPEG to RAW then processed through Aurora HDR followed by Denoise AI, Sharpener AI and finally Gigapixel AI. --- Basically almost every pixel of the original image has gotten a facelift and shot of steroids. :) Have to view full screen to appreciate the level of detail.

I have heard rave reviews on the Topaz AI software. I tried to download a trail but for some reason I couldn't get it to download.
I like the juxtaposition of the cliff and the sky Chris.
Darker tones are appealing to me as well.
Good work and thanks for the information.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

They have strict system requirements so I wonder if that's the issue with the trial download? I'm using late 2013 Mac Book pro with i5 8GB memory and its about all that it can handle!

When the image is dark to begin with it is nearly impossible to recover from it. You did a good job on this one. The darks work for this image.

You have captured this impressive scene so very well, the composition is a real winner.

Chris, to prevent that I'll be a thief of my own eyes (😁), every contribution is viewed by me at full screen size, so not missing any detail.
Although the initial image was taken by a cheap 'point and shoot' camera, the composition is wonderful.
Your good way of editing has made this B&W image more attractive than it already was!
Good work!
