Question Morning light reflection on Sea shore.

On my recent trip to coastal Orissa I have taken this shot of morning sun light reflection on sea water. The frame was so captivating that I can't resist myself to capture this. Here is that picture for your valuable criticism. Please tell me whether I successfully manage to capture the beauty of the play of morning light or I have failed to do it.

For me, the main subject is not the light but rather of the waves. If you wanted to capture the light as your focal pint, you may want to get more of it in the frame. Perhaps the sun coming up and the reflection it offers would lead more into what you are describing.
Hope you dont mind, but i resized your photo for you. Please keep them under 740.

Thanks windrider86 for your valuable suggestion. Actually the sky was not so clear at that time, only the golden tone of the sky reflected on the water that is why I was not able to include the morning Sun within the frame. So, I have concentrated on the water. If the sky was clear then perhaps I was able to capture it more nicely.

Regards,

Rajarshi Chattopadhyay.

N.B. I didn't mind for resizing the photo. In future I will take care of that.
