The composition is good (though maybe less sky and more foreground rocks would have been a good idea), but the image is boring to me. Just a little too muted for my taste.

Great composition but if you would have waited (or moved) to capture a ship or the yacht in the 'harbor' on the center left as if it was 'leaving the harbor' then the picture would have been much more appealing. Another suggestion is the make narrower field of focus--use higher aperture like f2 or so to make foreground a little bit more fuzzy, out of focus--doing that would have given you less grain and better colors too as a side effect but would have shifted attention of the viewer into the center of the image and beyond. Sharper skies would have helped too. Moving to the left so you can see more of the open sea on the left of the lighthouse would have helped to balance the picture and to make it with an 'open ended' meaning attached to it--basically moving to the left and then turning to the right 90 degrees and then taking the picture is what I mean.

it was a little boring to me. It would have been nice to see something in the background or have some waves

I like this shot...I have a shot on here of the same lighthouse =) As for the comment above...aperture has no effect on colors or grain and shooting at f/2 is generally not a good idea for landscapes...the foreground detail adds to the shot in my opinion.

this works great as a wallpaper for dual monitors, the color of the sky works good with my icons on one monitor, and then other side i get to see the walton lighthouse which reminds of Big sur. I like the sailboat that no one noticed too.
