Not as good as I had hoped as the ship was a long way off and I only had my 55-250 lens with me at the time and it was a grey damp day

I think that the photo could us some additional contrast and saturation to help it pop a little.

Re: PS Waverley

This image desperately needs a crop, that patch of sky top left keeps pulling my eyes away, I'd be tempted to crop from the top about a third of the way down. Then it would work.

Re: PS Waverley

Yes its a bit flat and really there is too much "background" - With a bit more pp and a crop midway on the horizontal and 1/3 off from the right vertical would be better
