 I waited for the tourists to leave the wreck, then waited for the clouds to come in. The light was beautiful.

Crop, overall lighting adjustment, levels adjustment, resized, sharpened, noise reduction and finally removed minor distracting elements and dodged the vessel name.

Nice and moody.

Suits the subject.

I think, though, that you could still keep the mood and increase interest with a bit of brightness.
