Personaly I like the weight and balance of the image. The fact that the person is nicely positioned adds to the images composition. I like it. B/W?

Thanks Jim. I processed a BW version of this image and it didn't come out the way I want it to (lacking full PS knowledge). I'll let you know if that ever happens. Thanks again for the comment and suggestion.

It is in need for some guiding lines that would leed to main subject ( in my opinion it is a person turned to raging sea - facing rough waters). But I also understand the purpous of still water that express a kind of tinquility, yet it remain as negativ empty space. maybe it could be improved if you cut two thirds of still water
