 OK, let's see if this one gets slammed for not actually showing the beach ;-)

I did find this while at the beach.

I took this while on a dinner cruise on Galveston Bay,

I shot manual and under exposed the meter reading by 2 stops. This is very close to the colors out of the camera. Bumped up the contrast and saturation just a little. The adjusted levels to increase the black density.

I wish I could touch up that sensor dust, but such is life with Basic Editing.
