Comment by Imagineer:
I like the photo. By way of improvement I would suggest a more offset split of the horizon, ie, more sky. I'd also experiment with levels and monochrome gradient map (set to overlay blend mode, at varying opacities). This may add some more contrasty and desturated colour, adding gravitas and making the scene a little more stark. This, coupled with an increase in saturation would look great I think.

if you're interested I could show you what I mean?

Very nice shot. Love the colors and I like the separation between the water and sky, the contrast works well. Good Job!
