It needs to be lightened some so the white boat will contrast with the blue expanse rather than blending into it -- at least in my opinion. I'm also wondering if the DPC rules would allow you to clone out the marks in the center right section. I do like the "blue expanse."

Nice image, interesting how the sky is so featureless and empty.

Good idea but seems a little noisy on my screen and the black bits (birds?) are a little distracting and just make the image look even more dirty. The placement of the boat is good, the gradient of color is good although it seems more purple than blue to me. Good idea but technically not quite there.
