    I'd darken the light halo effect that is happening at the front of the boat.

    I really like this shot, I want to start learning how to do these kind of HDR shots, did you do it through bracketing multiple shots at different exposures?
    Equipment: Canon 40D and Powershot SD750. Lenses: 18-55mm, 28-135mm and 70-300mm.

    I like the composition and the shot as a whole. But I do think that you've pushed the HDR affect too much. I'd work with it some more to produce a more realistic shot. Now, if you are looking for something spicy and outrageous, this is fine. But I think this well-composed shot would look better the closer you get it to reality.

    If i did that then no one will know if that is HDR, in fact i was after surreal look, even i didn't push it more than that.

    You did these in Photoshop? Might I ask how? I've been trying HDR's in CS3 for awhile now, with little to ZERO success. Your work is phenominal. I love it. Keep it up.

    I am into landscapes, and i am a landscape photographer, but i use any software to play with my landscapes, if i show you my best landscapes without HDR then you will say i should forget HDR forever, but i use HDR only for fun, i can make HDR many looks as i want.

    No, i used Photomatix, but i can use Photoshop if i want to get great HDR, and i will not tell anyone, it is a secret for some and it is just so easy for others, you have to keep experimenting as i do, HDR for me is just a fun!

    The boat shot is a winner, IMO! I like the HDR treatment you have used and the composition is superb!!
