There is a Manly Beach in Sydney Australia and this doesn’t look like it. I wonder which country it is in. DT 5.4 with heavy work in Tone equalizer and AgX as tone mapper.

Puhhhh, that’s a hard one. I struggled a lot with the chromatic aberrations (and other things, probably including myself :innocent:).

I think it’s a tree from New Zealand. So most likely the beach is there as well.

Yes. The beach is on a peninsula called Whangaparoa. It’s usually called “Big Manly” beach to distinguish it from “Little Manly beach” on the other side of the peninsula.

My version… :left_right_arrow:

The technique I used to enhance the contrast and color made the beach way too pinkish red, so I’ll admit I brought the beach color back. :slight_smile:
