    The horizon is way out of level, then I might think about cropping a bit of the left, some of the sky and a bit of the sand although the sand has an interesting texture.

    Isn't it a cool thing in nature that the colours never seem to clash...

    Beautiful scene !

    I'll suggest adding contrast,
    fix the horizon it is about 2 degrees leaning to the right using the water horizon as reference, keep the right most post
    also I'll add more contrast reduce brightness a bit

    I know it is a rule in photography to keep the horizon straight. In this case I wanted to take my picture from a different angle. I guess it did not worked so well. I did apply some contrast, but obviously not enough. Thank you for looking at my picture and taking the time to comment.
