Hi, Claude. Welcome to the group! I liked seeing your b&w take on this image. There are so many different ways a person can go in re-working the originals, that it's fascinating to see the various approaches folks take. You did well in straightening the horizon -- how did you do that? Did you use Lightroom's "transform" feature?
Hope to see some more of your submissions. And good luck in this contest!
Thank you for your comments! I'm an open source and freeware kind of guy, so I use Darktable and Gimp. In this case I used Gimp's Measure tool to straighten the horizon, and after some work with layers in Gimp I used the old free version of NIK Silver Effects 2 for the B&W conversion.
