Great job! The subtleness of the colors of the sky and water make this very nice. Has a quiet and calm effect to it. However, a water shot, or even a shoreline shot, does not always mean 'beach' in my opinion. And meeting the challenge, to me, is the first and most important thing, if that isn't done, then anything else is unimportant. Doesn't mean it's not a beautiful and creative shot, because in this case, it absolutely is! I do love it! I went back and forth on how to score your pic, but I do vote low for those that I don't think meet the challenge, so to be consistant, I am voting this lower than I want for the reasons stated above.
Not bad, a little crowded with vessels (unavoidable?) and the darkness of the main subject directs the eyes. A little too dark for me. Good DoF and soft light.
