Saw this scene in Tel Aviv Israel right over the Mediterranean sea. Kinda forgot the editing, but i'll try...

Heal brush to remove lens dust
I think I did some levels
Unsharp mask
Gaussian blur
fade blur - soft light

I think that is what i did...it was too long ago. Can't wait to show the outtake.

very nice. This is a unique photo, rather seeing the sun, hiding behind the clouds and gives a perfect light for that kind :)

It is. But your horizon is crooked.

Lovely sunset. It would be nice to see some more details in the water.

Beautiful shot. I might like it even better with a level horizon.

Nice golden glow, the clouds appear embossed on the sky. Unfortunately, nice sunsets are easy to find, and to me, this does not stand out from the pack.

You need to watch your compression settings, as well. There are visible compression artifacts around the dark cloud, and the file size of 38k shows why. You had another 112k to use. You probably also lost some detail elsewhere in the shot due to that.

Good sky and colour. I'd have made a bit more of the reflection on the water.
