Description
The outer area of the photo was quite bleached, so I darkened the edges with a simple black layer in photoshop, which I faded with a lower opacity.

The focal point is the crossing beams, so I centralized the shadows and darkened them as well. Then I coloured the water with a blue filter, and added a cooler feel to the picture with some blue/cyan colour layer.

Post-editing is very important to bring out the vital parts of the image that you want to be the focal point. As there was originally a lot of sheer white within the picture, it took just a little bit of work to balance it out and a bit more saturated.

This is the final result. I shall post the original image in a link below.
