Very nice and well exposed. It would have been really easy to allow the highlights in the waves to blow.

That's a cracker (but just to be super critical - couldn't you have got the falling water droplets a little sharper! :lol
This has been a really interesting, and excellent set. It's very hard for me to pick a personal favourite, not least because of the different styles you've given us, but probably nos. 1 & 4 just about shade it for me.

Lovely - nice composition, light and colour. The exposure time you've chosen works well for me also. It would have been easy to have a long exposure to 'smooth out' the sea and create one of those 'milky sea' shots, but by choosing a shorter exposure you've captured the details in the waves and the foaming water.

The intense colour and back lit clouds are great as are the reflections in the foreground.
Would anything be lost if you cropped off the really dark patches on the bottom edge?
I agree with Barrie - while I appreciate your response about keeping as much of the relfection as possible, I think that it would give the image a better balance.#3

That's a really striking image - cleverly conceived and executed.
However, for me the 'Boots' logo really distracts and I would have cloned it out - even though some would say that removing it would 'distort the reality of the scene'. (There's also something unusual right in the bottom right hand corner of the image which our local judges would spot in an instant!)

Re the 'alternative #1' - I prefer your first one, it has a greater sense of mystery to me, which add to the overall interest.
