Markjay...believe it or not, it's not the horizon that's off, what you are looking at is actually Long Island, NY across from the Long Island Sound as viewed from the town of Mamaroneck, NY. So that bumpiness is actually land in the distance (and a bit hazed by the low angle over the water.) I could change it I guess to eliminate the land, but then where would all the sailors go? Thanks for the comments...Keith

Beautiful scene you captured here, Keith! I will ditto Andy's comments below and add one of my own (*) as well. The horizon line where the water meets sky, appears rough / jagged. I photograph a great many beach / water scenes so I know that this can in fact happen naturally... especially if the water is rough / choppy on any given day. However, for an experienced photography viewer, it can be a bit too strong for a smooth beautiful scene like this. IMO, it would be wise if you would ever want to take the time to clean up / straighten that horizon line? You can simply draw a rectangle crop line and "clone" in more water to a straight edge or, do the same with the sky instead? Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to view your beautiful photograph! Markjay
