I really like the simplicity of this Richard. You might consider cropping off a bit of the ocean to get the sun lower in the photo which would emphasize it even more.

Hey Richard,
While I think Rich's idea of minimizing the sea is a good one......for me......the colors and textures of the sky aren't strong enough to carry the scene. I tried lightening the sky.......but not enough depth there to really be strong enough of a focal point......we'll see what others chime in.

I like the simplicity here, but agree with Roman about the sky. So I say crop the sky, not the sea.
