contrary to a couple of comments, I actually like the way the masts bend, as if they are worshipping the sun. This was taken with an extra wide zoom at 10mm. I think my title describes the shot...the minister of the church is the big yacht in the forground. The congregation are the yachts in the background, and the water is the church building!
Being a pastor, one of my competitors is people's Sunday recreation time, so in other ways, this IS the church of PEOPLE who worship the sun.

This reminds me of the great tropical holiday we just had in the Whitsundies. This is a really cool shot, and I love the way you have captured it with all the mast leaning to one side.
Nice composition, colors. Most viewers including myself would prefer straighter masts. To keep sun in frame, try portrait mode with your ultra-wide, keep camera horizontal so that the masts remain vertical, and crop off bottom of frame.
i think the composition is fantastic how the bg boats are leaning into the foreground. i like the sun as part of the frame but i'm not sure about how it has come out after processing. oddly the blues seem over saturated but the water doesn't. It looks like it could have been a very cool light green, but seems to have been lost.
