you've got some pretty serious haloing going on here...to me, that amount of processing detracts from what is naturally a beautiful scene.

well, I should probably save this comment until after the voting, but have a look through the submissions...you'll find another shot from nearly this same location...that shot alone should give you plenty of incentive to try shooting here again

Dramatic beach

very nice...beautiful foreground...I wonder why you went with a portrait orientation though, as the sky, to me, doesn't really add much, and in fact may detract...from what I can see, there's very interesting texture in the sand there, gorgeous rocks, and of course a great flowing water pattern...the sky isn't needed, IMO...you're still getting a 7 though :)

Oh Wader, there's a fly in my soup.

probably not shot under the best of lighting conditions, but you did well here.

Nice winters day at the beach.

a tough scene to expose for, but I really wish that the foreground was brighter...the sky is just fantastic!

it's a shame it's noisy, as this is a gorgeous scene...you had a lot to work with here...I would have liked a slightly different composition...the log is a bit too far off frame, and a higher point of view would have minimized it's dominance...under different conditions you'd want the log to be the dominant element, but given the mist and the very interesting sky, I think deemphasizing it would have really served you well.
