Post-Processing Challenge III

Hi everyone !  Hope you had a great summer!

I was looking back through some of the journals that have been posted to the group and realized we haven't had a post-processing challenge in quite some time.  I recently came back from a business trip in California and was fortunate enough to have some spare time to drive around and see the sights.  One of those sights was a very famous shipwreck that is photographed quite often.  For this challenge, I present you with three exposures of this landmark.  Below are the links to three exposures in DNG format. 

Let's see a touch of your style!

Please post links to your works below and I'll make a final journal showcasing everyone's versions on 9/25/16.  If you don't mind, I would appreciate if you could shed a little light on your workflow as well.  If you don't want to give up your secrets, that is fine too.  I look forward to seeing what you can do!

<Edit1>Less than two weeks to go!  Provide your edit in the comments below!
