Always going to be a difficult shot. To the eye, its worth a shot. The above image does need some work. The levels are off, hence it looks hazy and lacks contrast. Maybe also needs a slight lift in curves.

The two fence posts visible at the bottom can be removed by cropping the lower edge to line up with the top of the wall at the lower left.

It needs a wee bit of sharpening. The sky at the top right needs to stay IMO as it adds balance and scale. Not sure about the roof at the lower left?

Either way, it's a workable shot with lots of colour contrast and is worth some PP.

Best regards

Too far from a shore.

Just started taking shots and have not yet had a go at editing shots, may need to go and do a course at local college on digital photo editing

You've already an eye for a scene so looking forward to seeing your PP work later on.
