I like it. Clouds were the focus so I don't need to see anything lower in the frame. I am trying to ignore my 15mm envy.

Nice capture! The lack of water on the bottom adds a bit to this shot I think because it makes it different from the standard "Sunset Shot" so to speak.

It does have some nice elements as described above.
Another aspect, apart from the composition, that makes it good but not outstanding is the relatively flat colours, harsh sun bursting through the clouds centrally in the frame and lack of clear subject matter.
