My Image Your Look: Craggy Coastline.
Recently I've been trying to capture how fragmented this part of the coastline is. In trying to capture the precipitousness of the cliffs I ended up with a shot that has a very downward-looking perspective. It's an unusual line of sight which makes it different to work on, and for that reason it may be a tricky one to use compositing on.

In my edit I tried to enhance the ruggedness and the height of this terrain that RG mentioned, some of that by various blurring of the background, some with the use of the sea gull.
I cropped the sky and a bit of the bottom, tweaked contrast, shadows and added a slight vignette.

I wonder?....Can you fake long exposure?

Enhanced color and detail, a little dodging and burning, small crop
This diver is much more brave than myself.
And pretty dangerous for ships too.
Played with the perspective a bit; played with the light
