I love the pastels, greens, browns and greys. The softness of the long exposure is appropriate here, although I feel that it is much overused by many. You may have the vignette just right, but I'd play with it and maybe just put it around the top and have a more natural sand color at the lower left. The only thing I'd do different is get beyond those shark turds. They're calling too much attention to themselves and making me wonder what they are. I think this is best as an interpretation of colors and textures and unidentified objects in the FG detract, at least for me.
