Pumping up the saturation really transformed your start photo into something compelling. The ship on the horizon adds depth and tension with the tropical oasis of the foreground. I think the text needs to stand out more, however. Bigger (overlapping the palm trees a bit) and brighter (picking up the yellow in the menus, for example) would help.
The posterized sky is a very cool touch. With all the empty space in the northeast quadrant, I don't see the need for the text to encroach on the cross atop the church. Making "Malta" bigger or a different font might be more 'postcardier.'
Text should be larger and white against a dark background. Not a very exciting font anyway.
Howdie stranger!
