Photography Question 

Anahelena Natera 		 

Should I have used Grad ND?


 
 
Hi everyone. I have a couple of questions. I shot this image at the beach with an oncoming storm. The problem is that the image seems to be a little dark. Should I have used a grad ND filter? Should I have exposed for the ocean? The problem with exposing for the ocean (without the ND) is that the sky would have come out terribly over-exposed.

I'm also submitting a black and white version to see what you guys think. I would appreciate any feedback on both images.

Thanks so much.
