A closer crop and do some adjusting so it isnt so bright. Man oh Man! This image has sooo much potential!

The clouds and the beach all lead your eyes right to the middle where the boats sits. Kudos on your angle!

Awesome capture. Can you post the original without the HDR effects applied?

Sure, just keep in meant this is one of 9 pictures of the set I had to use to capture the HDR

As you can see, the picture was taken it at high contrast (afternoon before sunsets)


NOTE: Sorry by my english

Your English is fine. I really like this image as an HDR as long as it's not overdone. I like the water color better in the second picture, but like everything else how it is. The first one looks a little more natural to me.

Although your attention is drawn to the boat due to it being lightened up a bit, it doesn't look very natural. Personally I'd tone it down a bit and maybe increase the brightness of the beach (or lower the black level) by just a hair so that the attention is still in the lower right corner of the image.

That's just me, though. Great shot!
