Nicely composed classic view. One small point on the composition is that the top of the arch interferes with the land on the horizon, either a slightly lower or higher angle would avoid this. I can appreciate the logic of doing something a bit different on a well frequented spot but the processing is really not for me though; it also brings out the dust bunnies in the sky.

I quite like this PP - it's a different and striking effect. But I agree with the good doctor about the marks in the sky and the arch-land overlap, and is the horizon straight?
But a real eye-catcher

I second the Good Doctor's comments as well
Before I read that you wanted comments on the pp I noticed the people on the beach and then though that the pp is unusual not in a bad way just unusual.
I also like the fact that the shot is a little different

Seascapes need straight horizons ( I can't do them either!) The split toning works very well, in my opinion. The dustbunnies need cloning out. Nicely composed, too.
I love that bit of coastline, but the cars and the people... well, there are quieter places!

I like the sharpness of the ripples and sand most! Should be viewed large to see it even better.

I think everyone above has put you on track. If you run the photo up to the toolbar on your screen you'll see just how far the horizon is from the straight and level. Personally, I would prefer natural colors for this one.
