Nicely done, Robert.
The middle horizon line is fine as the cliffs to the left and the foreground rocks create a lot of interest.

Robert, seeing the unfinished piece wit the finished one shows so much more of what went into the piece than just seeing the final image. I find everything about it very agreeable and beachy! Lovely work
