Dudler,
Thanks for the comment and taking time to compare images. I was looking at older pictures as I enter a few photo competitions and was looking for potential images. Judges are very critical of sharpness, and the older version was a bit soft on the rocks on the right, so I decided a different shot might be a better starting point for re-visiting the processing.

This seems to come up a good bit in clubs (I'm not a very clubbish sort of person, so my experience is very limited!)
I tend to go with the sort of thing that whatriveristhis produces, very impressionistic. I remember a professional, Christopher Joyce, who died many years back, advocating using 3200 ISO film and an 80-200 zoom for landscapes, hand-held. He was possibly not popular with camera clubs...
I use Nik Efex quite a lot, and that often adds grain and tends to degrade (or destroy) sharpness...
