Without a doubt, the subject matter is messy—too many destracting details and probably not a clear subject matter. But, this scene it not about the specifics—it’s about the light. I saw the golden light on the shrimp boat and the blues of the water and sky. Two great complementary colors is what I saw and what I tried to convey in the image.
Enjoy.Camera settings: Nikon D3, Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8 shot at 135mm, ISO 200, f/11 and 1/80th of a second.
Post Processing:
Lightroom—Set black and white points, added clarity and increased contrast.
Photoshop—used spot healing to clean-up various ugly spots and added saturation to blue and orange.
Good color combination. I think you could have made the scene simpler by cropping out the house. Not sure what it adds to the whole scene. Also, does the clear sky in the top

Seems to be missing something. I can see the nice light however that cannot carry a photo without a great subject.
