Honest Critique of this one please? I think the polariser may have been a little strong...

I think the composition is excellent, but the polarizing is way too strong. It detracts from the image.

Whilst the polarising might ave been too strong I think it actually adds to the overall photo by graduating the picture it helps the eye to focus on the subject.

I like it a lot

I really like the composition as well, but I've been playing around with the curves for ages and can't quite get the overall tone right ?!

I think I'm happier with this one... what do you think?

Imo it just needed some colour correction, nothing else. So here is a colour corrected version:
