A few more whitecaps would be nice, but this is convincing enough - looks like a lovely place! Nice color to the water. The sky is a bit cyan and the clouds seem a bit painted, but overall it hangs together pretty well.
Well, you certainly can tell it was a windy day. :D While it's a nice photo it doesn't jump out and say "look at me". The pier/dock adds a bit of clutter, however it does add context (which is good). Seems that maybe it was a little underexposed and you pushed it up some to bring out the foreground. In doing so the whites in the clouds have blown out. The photo is also quite cold with the heavy blue cast. That may have been your intent, but I think it could stand to be warmed up a little by adjusting the color temperature to a warmer tone. All of the above is JMO of course. Best of luck to you in the challenge.
Yup, that's pretty choppy. I like the idea, however the sky seems to be badly exposed. Having said that though, I do like to see cyan in skies as it's more realistic than the over-saturated blues.
