 Treating the existing shot in RAW............ firstly..... is it level?.................in Adobe RAW.......

 

............  using the "adjustment brush" I would bring up the light in he creamy sea moving around the rocks and increase the "clarity" to give the sea a little more sparkle..................... Generally more punch is needed and white in the snow covered mountains. I would use multiple adjustment brush "pins" so each area/subject can have it's own settings.................the general rule is all shots should have at least one part fully white no matter how small and one part black,  

 

  ..........add sugar to taste.............all is not lost there!

Hi Dave, in fact I did plenty of adjustments in photoshop for this photo, the one you see here is the raw converted without post processing, if interested I can gladly send you the RAW picture.
