The horizon needs straightening, which would straighten the lamp-posts. I would also crop everything to the left of the leftmost lamp-post.

could do without the tilted horizon but otherwise a fine entry

could be a nice photo. follow your rules of 3rds, and watch your horizon line.

Comment by _Io_:
When the horizon's at such a shallow angle off the norm, it should really be leveled out - it wouldn't detract from the half hooped lights at all (which would also benefit from having their verticals straight up). If you'd caught the ferry a few seconds later with the row of lights pointing directly at it without obscuring it, you would have been onto a perfect 10!.
I do like the intersection of one light with the next.

Cool idea. I think this photo would have more visual impact if you had gone into Photoshop, selected the entire image, selected "Free Transform", then right-clicked and selected "Distort". Then you could have pulled on moved around the corner handles until you had all the verticals (lamp posts, etc.) aligned absolutely veritcal. Also, you always want the horizon completely horizontal when water is involved. I probably would have played with the sky a little to make it slightly darker and bluer at the top and gradually reach its natural color/tone near the horizon. Just a couple of ideas for what its worth.

good composition, I like these kind of opportunities to shoot. Looks like it might need to be rotated 1 or 2 degrees to the left maybe. The sky blends into the shot so well the colors all run together. Tough conditions to shoot in!. A cool sunset or rise, clouds, night shot would be great if all the lights light up.......5
