Thanks guys great info!
The thing i didnt break down was the trees but i really shouldve spent the time to break them all down. So im thinking of breaking down the clouds, trees, sand, water and maybe add a layer mask to the sky so that it'll fade down nicely - that or just feather.
I did use levels but not a polarizer lens. I have yet to switch my camera to RAW i keep forgetting about it :S But yeah it probably would be easier to edit using the RAW tools depending on how i wanted it too look.
I think im chasing an effect that i see here with tourism where every photo is super saturated but some of them look really amazing, probably because there not as mundane as this shot. If you wana see what im talking about visit Welcome to Samoa : Samoan Tourism Authority
Awesome website! Amazing how such a simple shot can be turned into something beautiful. If you have any other articles that you would like to share then please do.
Thanks for the feed back guys im going on a trip to visit one of the atolls this weekend so ill switch my camera to RAW and start snapping
