Couple of landscape/surf shots

Hey guys, first post on this wonderful forum! Just wondering what you thought about em

They are quite dark?

First I would crop out the top of the frame, keeping the big waver and the folks..and up the exposure.

#2.again, dark

#3,4 have sensor dust galore..I like the last , but a crop would help.and GND.

Be careful shooting surf. The abundance of white will coax your camera's meter to make it 18% gray.

In the last one, the out-of-focus bush on the left detracts from the image. It also protrudes to far toward the center to serve as a pleasing frame. The thing in the top right corner is worse.

First 3 are dark
