I thought this might have been the Oregon coast. I did the PCH drive last year and it was spectacular. I recommend it to anyone. Beautiful picture. The white waves really help, giving it a nice contrast.
Seems disorganised - I get no sense of the real subject of the shot - the Haystack? The haze? The light? Lacking clarity and I can't see that the noise helps anything - it's too orthodix a scene to be a dirty image.
Image critique: beautiful morning light is its main strength but the subject is lovely. This just lacks a bit of 'pop' for me. The central feature is awkward with its peak butting up to the ridge line, so I would have tried to avoid this by crouching very low. A lower POV may have added some extra dimension too rather than the more conventional eye-level.
Out-of-challenge appeal: yes, it's pretty but not magnetic enough to pull me back for long
i don't think this is one of the better interpretations of haystack. you might want to look through zoomdak's work for some other treatments of this subject.
