Nice cloudy sunset, Sara Jean. However, the "After" image is a little too greenish for my liking especially on the water. As a sunset image, I feel the overall colour tone should be more yellow-orange than anything else.
Hope you don't mind me editing your image but here is my take on PP. What I did:
1) Adjusted curves so that there is deep S, dragging it to the darker side.
2) Boosted saturation to +35
3) Changed midtone colour balance to a more reddish-yellowish setting
4) Adjusted contrast to +10
5) High pass filter for 1.0 pixel with an overlay layer at 70% opacity
