Without knowing what you are wanting help with it's a little like finding a needle in a haystack. (plus asking is required per the guidelines)
With that being said, wow, i love those trees in the water. This is my own personal opinion but have you thought about doing this in black and white? For me it would really offer the entire image a feeling of solitude.
I can go either way with the boats in the background. but i do think some of the empty space needs to be closed in by cropping your image down.
You mentioned this was an HDR image. How many images did you use to create this?.

Sorry about the lack of understanding of the guidelines, point taken, next time i shall be more careful with my posting

I used one tiff image and created 5 different exposures of 1EV and blend into one. Black and white seems like a good idea, but the redish sky gives me a sense of romance and thus the title Romeo&Juliet. These are dead trees and i was hoping to create an environmental awareness.

Cheers

Definitely has a lot of depth to it! I think it is great!

I really like it compositionally. The colours are great, the red sky on the water works really well. I'm not sure about black and white as a result, I'd keep it in colour.
