 I hesitate to enter, as my instincts have been WAY off as far as entering challenges lately -- but if I don't get back up on the horse soon I may end up giving up. So here goes.

Size, levels, USM, contrast, then the duotone treatment. I really, really wish I could clone out the dust spot. Come on new rules!

I like how the pier is centered in the middle of the image, really works here. Looks like I can walk to the end and reach the horizon :) Storm clouds also work well for this kind of image, a blue sky would not have been half as interesting for a sepia-ish tone. Overall, the image is just a bit dark on my monitor. Good work though.

Rich, warm tones. Like the perspective. Sky is beautiful and the lighting is nice. Like the faint railing shadows on the left...they add depth. AND, you've got a level horizon!!!!! 10
