cool shot. I'd like to see more detail in the sea and personally I'd crop a lot of that sky out as its featureless but its still a very evocative picture.

Nice shot. A bit too much sky maybe a landscape photograph would work better with this image. I do love how the coast runs on and on though.

Really nice. I agree with cropping maybe 1/3 of the sky out, but in any case I just love the mood here. The processing looks like film or even a painting.

Yeap! Maybe just a bit too much sky. But, I like it as is. Great exposure and capture!

Thank you everybody for your comments!. You are right with the sky, but I just wanted to show you the picture as it turned out.
@Damon Schreiber: This picture comes from classic 35 mm film. I only processed it for colours and contrast.

I actually like the concept of leaving such a large amount of absolutely blank sky up there. However, there aren't enough vertical elements on the bottom to balance it out. Perhaps if the coastline ran higher this would have turned out better. I enjoy this type of film photography greatly and it's a real pleasure to see some good film shots in a digital-dominated arena, thank you.
