Welcome to DPS. Is that water? I like it, though.

Compositionally, I like it, although I would rather have seen either less of the boat or more. I'm not sure why, though.

Looking at the rest of the EXIF data on the Flickr page, I see you took this with the kit lens. I take it you were using IS? .8 seems an awfully long time to handhold, even with IS. Are you sure you weren't at least resting on something? Or are you one of these completely caffeine-free people?

My camera's a few years old now so my lens doesn't have IS. I was sitting down with my legs crossed and my arms resting on my knees and used the shutter delay function.

Any thoughts on the warmth that I added in LR3?

I think it's a nice touch. The vignetting might be a little overdone for my tastes, but it's not completely out of place here.

lol

I have to agree with Beav about wanting to see just a little more of the boat. I think it would ruin it if you took away more of the boat.

Vignetting seems ok up top but seems a bit heavy handed on the bottom of the picture though.

How about this?

I like this one a lot better.
