Wanted to clean up this photo taken on the island of Mull in Scotland and dont know if I am happy with the result?

Is the crop too tight?

I like your cropped version better, but I might add just a tad more foreground.

Great location. Crop is fine, IMO. But, your PP isn't working here. The blacks are crushed and the whites are blown on the side of the boat. The PP really throws the balance off.

Maybe a BW would work on this?

Agreed, PP isn't great, but I do like the crop. A tad more foreground maybe, but it's good.

The first one is definitely better, but with all your PP it looks like it is nowhere near as sharp as the original?

A little too much pp...too much contrast maybe? A little less sky?
