darktable 5.0.1
I don’t enjoy looking at 2:3 images. 
4:5 feels more balanced to me - at least to my eye. Black and white felt like a natural choice because of the clouds. I increased overall contrast and gave the clouds some extra attention. To enhance their texture, I added a bit of grain. The birds were just distracting (basically black dots), so I removed them.
I darkened the lower part of the image since it wasn’t important, and slightly brightened the coastline to draw the eye there. Added a frame too - because every image deserves one. The only thing I really don’t like is the water. It came out as an unpleasant gray, and I just couldn’t figure out what to do with it. I thought about blurring it, but that didn’t work either, so it remained an ugly gray.
Thanks so much for the photo - it was fun to work on!

DT edit. The retouch module removed the distraction in the sky rather than cropping the image.
