What an interesting shot! I like the graphical nature of this image. It makes me stop and really look at it. My only nit would be to sharpen it up a bit. It seems soft to me. maybe that was intentional tho. That's just my take on it. Use it as you wish.

in some ways I was trying to create the "old time" look so the softness is ok. This was a very early morning sunrise, 50th sec, moving waves and birds. tradeoff of higher iso vs faster shutter. this is iso 200. D-80.

I like it. My eye finds a lot to look at and my brain (such as it is) finds a lot wonder about. I like thinking about the relationships. I'll bet you don't sell a heck of a lot of this one but I find it quite original and interesting.
