Nice set, I think the last one is my pick, just that extra bit of light on the ocean makes it for me.
C&C welcome.

Number 2 for me - because of the colours in the sky. Beautiful.

Thanks both!

I did look to recreate that light in the last in Lightroom for the opening image:

That last one is quite beautiful (well, they all are)
Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

Lovely work here .... The filter has really brought out that sly beautifully, and you've exposed just right for the deep sea tones with that sheen of refection from the sky. It all comes together in a prefect blend!

The first ones, with their softer contrast, work better than that last, I think.

All very nice but number one for me. I like the use of the leading line in the water to take you into the rest of the frame.
