All is not lost
I am not sure what to put this under so will just post it , I took this photo last week its a very long shot but the photo turned out very hazey as you can see , But before I throw or dump a photo I always think can I rescue it the answer yes we can, What I did first was deepen the sea to a dark blue to give it a deep ocean look, then gave the white caps a boost , from there I introduced the sunset , to make it compleat I then USM it and just a touch in curves and shadows, So just a bit of thought can make a throw away photo into a printable and framed photo.
