I was fooling with the polarizing filter, and it completely eliminated the reflection off the water. I think this shot looks almost unreal because of that. But I did very little other than USM.

Great sun behind the clouds. It was so intense like that yesterday but I couldn't capture it. The beach is the perfect scene to get that great intensity!!

Its been my experience that using a polarizer and facing directly at the light source will have too much darkening effect on part of your picture, when adjusting for the bright light. Unfortunately I have not found a good way to balance that out with photoshop yet, but what you have here does not ruin the photo. If I were to have taken this shot with the polarizer, I may have pointed the camera up higher to capture more sky and less water. Good job though, it looks really nice.
