Default Split Tone Sailboat
Shot this at Chelsea Piers in New York.
Post processing was primarily noise reduction, levels, and split toning.
Full-res can be found at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/384746/sailboat.jpg

How do you like the composition?

Depends on what you're after. Interesting mood. If the boat is really the subject, it blends into the background a bit much and is a bit small. Bring it out

The composition looks fine to me. Maybe try brightening up the sails to bring more attention to the boat.

Definitely improved. The eye goes to the sail boat much faster.
