Let me know your thoughts on this one? too much contrast?

F22, 0.5sec,11mm, ISO100.

Overall, I like this shot quite a bit. I have no problem with the contrast and think the conversion looks fine. You've split the image into almost even thirds in the vertical plane but the horizontal plane is essentially flat across the entire image. I'd like to see something in the foreground or the middle ground break that up.

Nice shot. Not too much contrast, I think you've got it just right. I particularly like the left hand side of the picture where the clouds and the water are on similar plains.

I love this photo. It is beautiful. I don't mind the contrast and I love the lines of the clouds.

The only thing that bothers me is some spray in the back wave. Not sure why that is bothering me but if there are other images without it, that might be something to consider.

This image is great. The sky is a little bit boring, but it doesn't detract from the image. You could always play around with putting a different sky in or playing with the one that's there.
The rocks are excellent enough to deserve more screen-space though. If you ever return to that location, make sure to focus (well, you get what I mean) on those rocks. The contrast and water over them is fantastic.

Nice shot- wish I was there! I don't know what else is to the left but that is what my eye goes toward and I wish I could see more of it with those far rocks in the background and that largish rock in the front featured as foreground interest ... right now once my eye gets to the horizon I lose interest ...

Cool shot. It doesn't look too contrasty for me. My only suggestion is to include less of the foreground. I think you could move forward a bit and try to use one of the big rocks in the water as a focal point, as there really is no focal point now, IMO.
