Making a pretty sunset picture or something more?
I know next to nothing about landscape work so these might be awful.
Just below thunderhole at dawn. Low tide.
Whoa! You showed such a lot more than one beautiful fish. It's like you zoomed out to the entire planet from your fish tank in a Humvee commercial.
So let's enjoy, just for now, this first spectacular view.
Ron Morse: Below Thunderhole at Dawn - Low tide
This is enjoyable and a splendid argument for reaching beyond the pretty sunset. The normal ideal and peaceful shot would end where the rocks and the water meet at the right of the picture. That area, below, would be cropped away and the photograph would make it as hotel decorative art. That, in itself, is not bad if they buy enough!
However, with the rocks in the foreground you create a sense of a present tense, a local definite reality. There's no magic in the foreground. Those rocks are each impressive and would have to be climbed over or bypassed to reach the idyllic waters ahead in the distance.
So your picture has two major parts, each with different range of meanings. I like that. Might I suggest working on the rocks to define them, each to the level you feel is worthy of just that rock within the array of other rocks, perhaps, making the entire image more alive.
