And, for free, my mind and Photoshop can put me here.

Straighten, and bring up image detail. A little crop on the water.

My LR won't open either the JPG or the DNG file. I just get an error message.

The colors and light I remember from St Croix and Bermuda.

the .dng link points to a .jpg file as far as I can tell. Odd.

I did't see the button Linda. I right-clicked the image that appeared. It's OK. I have finished my edit already. Thanks for the heads up.

Try the .dng file again. I might have fixed it.

I did do that, but I got a message that it couldn't open it. So I tried the jpg. Got the same message. I'll try again in a different LR program.

Hey, Jim, that worked. Well it sort of worked. My LR still didn't like it, but ACR opened it immediately. Thanks. Wonder what the different was.

I lightened it a bit, straightened it a bit (enough, I hope), and put a bit more light on the hills. I wished I could have put a polarizer on to pop the clouds out a bit, but that's not within the capabilities of PS. It's a nicely composed image - very balanced. Be sure to look at the DL because my PS doesn't do sRGB.

Here's what I think happened. Late last night after not getting any replies I decided to check and see if the .dng file was working. I went to my drop box and double clicked it and opened it in Photoshop. I saw it worked and since it was opened tried a couple of things. I saved MY changes with a new name to my desktop. Somehow that reverted some if not all MY changes to the dropbox file and might have corrupted it.

Not sure what version of Photoshop you have but with mine Photoshop CC when you choose the Crop Tool an Icon of a level appears in the top bar with the words Straighten next to it. If you click this area your cursor turns into a cross hair target. In this image you can click on the water line then drag it over appearing as a straight line to the other side. When you release the mouse/pad the picture automatically straightens. If unhappy do it again, for example the top of the sailboat mast and drag to the base of the mast, again it straightens but this time vertically.
