Hello Gray and welcome to TE! That you found a beached log interesting enough to shoot and post as your opening shot on TE should be commended. I like your composition here especially with the nice cloud formation and the greenish tones. However a couple of things I would want to see differently here are the horizon which to my mind should be perfectly horizontal and the beach in foreground which needed a little less exposure maybe.

Hi Gray,
Nice shot! I like the way you over-exposed the beach and the contrast with the log, grass, sea, clouds etc...
However, just like avis2avis, I suggest that you tilt your photo a bit so that the horizon would be horizontal (...) and also, I would have probably chosen a different angle to avoid having the horzon in the middle of the photo (it usually looks better, because you show more of what is more interesting)
