This is a bit of a seascape/landscape of stellar sealions off the coast of Orcas Island, Washington. The big bull made some audible barks and the sheer size of these things can only be appreicated in real life.

The male does look like he's lording over his brood. I like the sea lion that climbed half way up the wall.
This has nice mood and composition and the one alert bull makes for a good focus point. I like the enriched colors. Overall, there are lots of blues and you might try a slight selective tweak to warm the out crop with the big bull, just to set it off more from the blue background. That is just a thought for an alternate look, not a critique.
