Try This Shot Again

Well, it's still not what I want but I'm getting closer.

I went to Blevins Gap tonight for the sunset.  I didn't think it would be a great one (it wasn't) but I did want to try this shot again.  Helpful hints:

#1 Dust spots show up in bokeh.

#2 It helps if you put the White Balance back on "Daylight" (assuming that's what you want). 

#3 Autofocus will focus on the image in the water, instead of on the glass itself, if that's where you place the focus point.  They are not the same thing. Especially with the depth of field you get at F2.8.

I guess I'll try this shot again. Again.
