All just my opinion....
attached is a quick edit.
I agree. It's a great picture, but if you want to change one thing, it might be ratio.... portrait looks better... in my opinion..

Welcome to the Community Angus

That's one heck of a shot, really powerful.. the sky is priceless, the textures, the fisherman and the rocks. I really can't find much to add other then praise. You could play around with all sorts of adjustments but i would ask myself do I need to ? If it's not broke, don't fix it ! lol

That's a wonderful first Post,, thanks very much for showing it and please post more
