Photo has a mood. However I would like to suggest you to try to add more light for some dark areas. Regards, Michal.

Terrific shot, Peter. Great colours and contrast and i really like the natural framing within the scene. As a matter of personal taste, I think the outside white/black border might be a bit too heavy. Regards, ~Jon

Very nice image with excellent color and contrast. The mood is particularly powerful. My personal opinion is that the chair on the pier, and the pier itself detract from the composition. In such a scene as this, I think it is better to exclude objects like this because they clash with the natural beauty of the rest of the image. Just my opinion.
