It's a wonderful setting, but I'd try for a slightly different composition (if possible; I have no idea what constraints you have/had for moving about).  Two things trouble me a bit:  1) a fairly large and totally black shadows occupies much of the center portion of the photo; and 2) some of what I assume are main elements (the boats and what appears to be a very expensive and very nice hotel) are pushed pretty close to the left edge.  What I'd like to do (and this is where constraints might come to play) is to move to the right and pan the camera to the left, thereby removing some of the shadow and allowing more space on the left.  But I don't know if you could move far enough to the right to reduce the shadow and at the same time not have it encroach on the hotel -- that's a dilemma.  Alternatively, use a longer lens and forget the nice foreground on the right -- there's just too much shadow there.  Or another alternative, move to the left, try for a little more light on the ridge running through the shadow, place the right edge in the shadow, thereby providing more room on the left (which I think is the main concern).  I tell you, it's hard to be an armchair photographer.
