compositionally only the first shot appeals to me and I like that quite a bit, however the image is pretty flat in terms of contrast....a tweak in curves and maybe a slight saturation boost and i think you'd have a very nice image.

Holy cow! It took me a minute to figure out what that was in the bottom picture. Do people really drive their cars off that? :shock:

I love the first one! Nice job!

I had a bit of a play with it. Tweaked the levels, boosted the saturation and a bit of dodging and burning. Dunno if I've maybe gone a bit far with the saturation though?

The first one looks good makes the lighthouse looks small compared to the cliff.
Nice compostion.
the redited picture looks great.

Thanks for the feedback it is much appreciated.
The first shot is the only one taken from a stable footing, the rest from a tourist boat trip.
Yes people do actually commit suicide at the Head, i think it averages two a week.
Pretty sad really.

I'm looking at the pics on PC, i used my mac to process them. Clearly an issue here as they do look (to me) pretty reasonable on a Mac.
A bit of monitor calibration looks to be in order me thinks.

It's a nice improvement but the green is overdone. You could try selective saturation by applying it on one colour channel at a time.
