Comment by Blackdog:
I like the muted colours in this shot a nice overall tone. However the fundamental error is that the horizon is not level. Also having the horizon on or about the midddle of the shot does not usually work very well. Its generally better to have the horizon on the top or bottom third of the photograph, depending on what you what to emphasise, the sky, or the sea.

The water is very dark. Not the blue I would expect to see in this type of photo. I also would have cropped it differently (this is only IMO, I have been reading about the rule of thirds lately). Sky seems kind of bleached out to. I gave you a 3.

Horizon needs to be level and 1/3 from top or bottom.

Maybe a bit more detail and better focus would of given this more interest. Seems flat.

I'd like to see you straiten the horizon, move it to a lower third, and adjust levels and contrast to make this a better photo. 4

Comment by Allyrellia:
A nice idea, but the picture's color isn't too attractive, and it's a bit soft.

Comment by aKiwi:
I see a few problems with this photo
1. The horizon is crooked
2. The horizon runs throught almost the middle of the picture
3. There is no real focus (Subject)
4. Seems hazy / flat. Perhaps another time of day would give better results)

Next time... flip this image around. It makes people double take.
