All three seem to have extra space at the top of the image. For the boat, there's a blurred moving bird in the 1/40 shutter. Consider taking this image and recrop to 16:9 giving in a wider rectangle look and eliminating much of the open sky and cloning away the bird. The colors in this one and the other two are very nice, where it's too much open space that catches my eye as the area to consider for more editing.

I'll second the "too much sky" comments. I like the first one with the color on the sea oats.

On the first, try a crop to put the lens tower somewhere in the upper left area.

On the second, try a horizontal crop.

A bit too much sky and a little higher angle so there is less grass in #1 for me. But I have to admit that I have a similar shot that I did some 30 yrs ago with a 4x5 but had the full moon in the upper right to offset the sky. It brings back memories of when I lived on Tybee Isl.

I would add that the stump and the lighthouse are competing for attention amongst themselves too much.

I had this same thought. This is a crop of a larger picture. I may recrop this without the stump

#1 Try a 5/4 crop. Nice possibilities.
#2 Let it go.
#3 Any earlier frames? The ship is moving to the left and it is tighter to the left side of your frame. Crop 16/9 and see if you have one that shows proper movement forward by having more space to the bow side.
