Mmmm, I like the colours and the nice cloud shapes.

I think it could do with cropping the top third or so of the picture: that part does not seem to add much for me.

Am I the only one who thinks the image is slightly underexposed?

But to me the image really needs a foreground. A ship, a man, almost anything to give some interest and sense of scale.

The best sunrise/sunset images are those which are interesting even without the sunrise/sunset--i.e. more to the image than pretty sky colors. Scale isn't needed here but interest besides the colorful sky is; but not a boat or man, since that violates the posted rules of this forum.
