I agree. I like the way the wind is playing with the water surface

- reduce the ISO to 100 or 200 for shots like this - the shutter speed will still be plenty high enough and the image quality will improve a lot
- Try a slightly wider aperture - the lens will probably perform at its best between F5.6 and F8; you only need a narrow aperture if there's lots of foreground and distant objects that need to be in critically sharp focus
A good start - keep posting the images and I'm sure you'll get lots of helpful advice.
Best wishes
