I like to get shots with the crew hanging over the ocean. Can I get some critique on these shots?

First impression - I'm curious about the colors. Sky in both #1 & 3 rather strange colors + #1 seems to have splotches of pink and streaks in it. Ocean color also a little different - may be actual, but looks weird. #1 & #2 also have horizons at a angle. Except for sea colors all tones very washed out. Sorry - you asked.

Thank you for your comments. Sky and ocean colors change depending on weather conditions, ie, cloudy day,sunny day time of day.

The waters around the Bahamas are known for their vast difference in colors, from aqua to emerald green to various shades of blue.

Again thank you for the comments.

I was curious about the streaks of color in the sky (#1) as well as the lines down the entire image (#1 & #3). They appear to be (poor) scans. I know the waters of the Bahamas can be vivid, but there seems to be a vibrance here that may be overprocessed by the camera. What kind of camera did you shoot with? What were the settings?
#2 - the water appears to be a more natural color in this one.

I'm shooting with a Canon XSI, automatic settings with a 75 - 300 telephoto lens.
