Hello Michael

I like the framing and the timing. The two figures are well placed and separated and the two dogs the same. I like that they are running back towards the men and sort of mirror them. A few thoughts on what I feel might be changed. First the horizon is slopping down a bit to the left and needs to be straightened. I find it a little dark overall and might be lightened. The hill in the background has lost most of the detail. The blue on the water seems oversaturated in comparison to the rest of the image and might be desaturated to match the rest of the image. I did a quick edit to show what I mean. Straightened the horizon, lightened, desaturated the water a bit and added a bit of saturation to the hill and the sand. I also did a little bit of dodge and burn to hopefully draw the eye a bit more to the subjects. The jpeg is kind of falling apart so it's pretty rough but gives you the idea anyway. Just my 2 cents, you may disagree.

Regards

Greg
