I thought about more contrast with less detail in the RH bottom corner and heavier vignette but I think this version will score a bit higher. I will post a higher contrast version on 500px once this challenge is over.

Great light and stunning in black and white. I often like the addition of a human element into a landscape, but here I think the patterns of the light on the wave caps and the striking apostles themselves would have carried the scene. I'd at least look at a horizontal as an alternative. Voted earlier.
