Jon,

It's a lovely peaceful image. Don't think you can improve on this. Reminds me of the jigsaws I used to do as a kid where there were always hundreds of 'sky' pieces and hundreds of 'water' pieces!!

Glad you managed to work out Pixentral:)

Jon, don't know what your looking for, this photo is perfect just as it is.
Any adjustments would only be a personal choice by the viewer.

Some photos just don't need any adjustments or special effects, and this is one of them, Jon. Very nice!

Jon, I'm sure we'd all like to see more of your work. Why don't you start a gallery here? If you need instructions, click on "How to use the forums" at the top of your screen for a video on creating a gallery.

Checking that box just makes your image public on Pixentral, if you leave it blank then it can only be accessed from places where you have posted a link to it (like this site)

Jon, I agree that the picture is gorgeous just the way it is. But I have to say, I love to brighten photos like this up a bit. Here is what I did to your picture by going to
Enhance>Adjust Color>Adjust Hue and Saturation:

I bumped up the red and yellow saturation a bit, and toned down the blue and cyan a bit.

Then I went to
Enhance>Lighting>Brightness and Contrast, and bumped up the contrast a scosh.

I often discover that my "enhanced" photos look more like what I really saw when I was there than the camera caught. ;)

Best thing is to have fun and play with PSE.
