I like the back lighting on the waves - makes the image more three dimensional. The lemon yellow might be a bit too vibrant. The shadow play in the water is excellent. Wondering if the white foam and white of the waves could be brightened up from the current dull blueish grey? Shutter speed - either a bit faster or a bit slower, please. Slower would show more motion of the water and let that wind-whipped spray really spray. Or faster to stop the motion cold in its tracks. My inclination would be 1/20 sec perhaps.

Here's my two-cents' worth. I would have liked to see the wind-whipped spray in the foreground more in focus. I think it would have been very dramatic if it would have been technically possible to do so. I understand that lighting conditions when coupled with lens speed and camera ISO may have prevented this. The colors in the sky are fantastic. If it were possible either at the time of the exposure or in post-processing to bring out more foreground detail, that would have been great.
First I would like to take a moment to apologize for taking this long in responding to you directly. I opened the image when it was first posted and didn't find anything to really criticize. I performed a little paper cropping comp seemed to be fine. Rendering for viewing is well done and I don't think I would change much without having the image to work on, to do slight color and hue adjustment. I work off of my screen in the raw mode until I like what I see. Not too much help, however as I said not too much to criticize.
