Hi Paul,
In terms of colour rendition, exposure, subject (sun) placement etc. I think you've nailed it. The only thing that I'm not sure about is the LE effect on the clouds and the surf. It's either too long or not long enough, and I can't make up my mind which. If it had been good and long you would have got that misty, silky look to the water (although I don't think it would have worked in this case). A shorter exposure would have given us better definition in the cloud and the wave action which I'm inclined to think might have been preferable.
I know it's easy to criticise; "I would have taken this shot 5 feet to the right". Not knowing that there lies a 300 foot drop off the side of a cliff! I'm not convinced I would (or could) have done any better, so well done you.
