Hello from the Critique Club.
You captured a very lovely image that has a painting like appeal to me. As stated in your own comments, this image has no clear main subject and thus, left the voters little to lock onto emotionally. Because of that, the pile of sand at the bottom left becomes a substitute main subject to the viewer's eyes for a short period of time due to its size and brightness. This might have scored better if you had cropped out the beach at the bottom portion of the image and placed the dock and the finger of beach next to it about 1/3 up from the bottom of the image. This would have given the image a focal point of the fishermen on the dock and the beach finger with the dock and beach finger acting as leading lines. You might also consider darkening the clouds just a bit to portray the storm aspect of your title better. As is, the clouds have about the same hue as the mountains and don't look all that threatening.
Feel free to PM me if you have any questions regarding this critique.

Nice landscape. I think the people on the beach improve it. |

The picture looks flat and uninteresting on my monitor. What is the center of interest here? The mountains, the forground, the middle? My eyes keep skirting around without finding anything to dwell on. |
