Saw this in the voting booth. I see why you wanted to try to capture this. I don't think it really works as is. Because there's too much in this shot that you aren't really interested in.
I think this would work really nicely as a panorama. Consider cropping the bottom 1/3 (below the cars) and maybe a 1/4 of the top and giving yourself that long horizon line with the ship coast and clouds. It's more dramatic, that way.
