The thumbnail looks promising, but the link won't open for me so I can't see it big enough to judge.

Well-done! Good control of the sun. I might clone out the pipe on the rocks, though.

Hi Pramote

I think you balance looks a bit off. The large expanse of grey rock coming towards you and the lighthouse look way to bright for me. If you look at the rock on the right (which seems to be the same type of stone) it looks darker and more natural. There is still detail in the stone. Both areas of rock are in shadow so both should appear pretty similar in the image. Also you can see the side of the white lighthouse appear much darker the the middle area. Probably from you selection mask.

I would also say the darker area of water on the right located beside the darker stone looks over processed and this adds to the unnatural look of the brighter area of rock.
