Yeah, i'm not seeing the HDR part of it. Plus, there's a separate forum for HDR stuff.

I think you're on the right track. You've positioned the mountain well, deep greens, captured the misty fog/clouds well and you got some nice reflections. The biggest improvement you could make to this landscape shot is to level the horizon. It will make a big difference.

Thanks for the suggestion I appreciate.

The uneven horizon is the most noticeable thing and has to be fixed. I could not tell this was HDR either. Was there that much range in this shot that you had to use HDR? I think you have an interesting scene here, but no subject. A boat in the water or fisherman would make a good subject. I don't know why you included that stick in the water, as I would consider that a distraction and not a subject. I would clone it out.

I like the shot but I don't see the HDR. That's good because I don't like HDR much.

Someone smarter than me said to straighten the horizon line. I'd agree with that. Otherwise, I've no constructive critique
