love the lone man in the photo. boosting the brightness might have helped to bring out the detail of the trees and give the sand and grass some more "oomph!"
I felt like voting low just because you're gloating the good weather while the rest of us suffer. But, Alas, I do like the shot. Maybe work with the angle a little bit. The palms obscure the horizon line, which in this shot could have worked to your favor.
