I can't see a pic

Lovely, I like that.
Can't help but feel there's a touch too much foreground in the lower left. Not a lot you can do about it now - cropping would bring the horizon to the middle, ending up feeling a bit uncomfortable.
I also still maintain that a denser ND grad (or more?) really wouldn't go amiss. You've got a loverly sky here, but it is rather blown out above the sun - I just feel it could do with some more pop.
Water exposure is spot on

Nice, but as has been said, a little bit too much ground on the right, a little bit of cropping would sort it out

Can't get ND Grads to use on a 10-20mm lens, as you get too much vigertating, as the light can get behind the holder.

Very nice indeed Matt

Lovely capture!

Have to echo whats been said about the grad filter though. It would give the picture that bit extra. Could try a bit of blending from a few exposures if you shot in RAW...

Also the Lee filter system works perfectly with my 10mm lens. Its pricey but worth every penny.
