Nice shot
I enjoyed your photo. The saturation of the image draws one in to this pleasent scene.

The use of HDR is interesting in creating images. Do you shoot 1 RAW and convert them or do you bracket expose for your shots?

Good use of HDR
The scene is complimented by the even light.

Okay I guess I am the harsh one here

For me there are a few things I do not like.

1. The fountain- for me it actually takes away from the shot. It seems as though it would be much better without it.

2. Color of the water- first thoughts are 'That is some nasty water' and because of that it contrasts with the sky and building

3. The weird wood walkway on the right. Whether it is the angle or the light it looks a bit contorted (spelling?).




With that said there are also a few things I really like-

1. I love the clouds in this picture and the contrast against the trees.

2. I love the lines and how they lead you though the valley to the unknown.

3. Really like the roof line and the bricks against the trees

Hope you don't mind the honest critique?

It's a lovely scene but the HDR ghosting around the tops of the trees is very distracting to me.

Otherwise I find it very peaceful and serene.
