A lot of PS for this one, even with a 4 stop grad filter I couldn't balance the exposure between foreground and background. I can't remember exactly everything but I saved the psd file...
I think I used 4 level layers, shadow/highlights, selective colour, colour balance and a gradient layer for the sky. Probably too much but it's late and it'll do!

I Love this image great job
good job on the bench,flower, rock sand and the cliff in post processing. Who care the water and the sky didn't come perfect, it did come out average to good.
Is there a golf course in the distance?

Neat composition and great colors. Something makes it look too much like a painting to me. Perhaps a filter that you applied? I can't place it, but something looks a little off.
nice bench. i find however that the bench tends to dominate my view and i'm missing out on some really good stuff. generally (but not always) the foreground object should lead into the picture, not block our way into it. the horizon of the land and sea on the L need some separation - pick one or the other but not both.
great vision to see this, nice idea using a foreground object too
