I just copy and paste the people to the right
Crop out the left so the sun is not in the center.
Crop out some sand, bring you closer to the see and people of greater impact.
Slight saturation and sharpening.
since you image is small and not high in resolution to support the larger size put a frame around it for better presentation.

All I did is cropped the extra space on the left so the flower is not so center, without so much negative space, the flower give a greater impact or impression. Normally I don’t recommend people to frame there image, they try too hard. A good image speaks for itself. In this case I do it because I cropped it and now it’s a lot smaller and I don’t want to up size it which will make it blurry. Instead I added simple frame (Remember something simple, not black or color, just a little color line with the same color of you subject) which draws the viewers to focus more on the image. I hope you like it.

Since your image is fairly small, I think it looks better to frame it and the smaller your image the sharpen it look. I sharpen it just a little big and applied some contrast. I also cropped the left side there is too much background, that way the butterfly is not so much in the center. It help compositionally. I hope you like it.

As five big horn sheep strolled by, the clouds glistened with the setting sun. Its rays pierced the skies. Golden specks sprinkled across the trees. The sheep moved on, as if this change was a backdrop of their everyday lives. I stood awed by such beauty.
