Like calicojack said, where the photos taken on a high humidity day? This could be the cause.
I usually shoot raw and add contrast, clarity and vibrance @ +25 in Bridge before adjusting the other sliders. Then go to CS to make necessary corrections.
They were more or a tongue in check response to this thread where we all pine over the mystical colour rendition our 10yr old cameras have.
The shot of the water was overexposed and the focal point was set to the breaking crest of the wave below the horizon, which is naturally moving thus blurred.. which really hides the focal point. Similarly the shot of the scrub had the focal point in the sleet / mist rain (above the green, but below the tops of the trees) again to hide the focal point from you. Why hide the focal point in a barren stark looking image? Simply thought it might be a good idea that's why : P
I was interested in trying to depict what silence, well being board, lazy, disinterested, unsatisfied may look like.
But it seemed like a neat enough image to tease you all about colour rendition
