Over exposed , overcast morning near Bonaventure Island, Perce, Quebec.
What to do.

In Camera Raw/ WB-Daylight, pulled back on whites and highlights and used some clarity for definition of edges and reduced the noise. Hoping to make it sleeker.

Topaz BuzSim and working in more of the three detail sliders.

Great ethereal effect, I really like what you did to enhance the mood that the Gannet seems to be just emerging from the mist. The eye contact is really nice- it makes all the difference, I think- kind of anchors the picture. This definitely benefits from viewing against a dark background. Beautiful work!
