Ok, time to be the critic here..
(as Ken said, (if) I can't trace, I can be a critic :-)
The sea looks good, it's a smooth heightfield, no?
I think you could do more for the sky in this image, it should really gain from
some work. (clouds and so on)

The HF should probably be in a higher resolution for this sort of image, as it
is, it's to easy to see the changes...

Hmm, I also think it lacks some feeling of "wetness" perhaps some
(specular)reflection could do it...

well, it is a good iamge, but the thing to do is the sky...
