Hmmm?

- use ANY editing tool to move, remove or duplicate any element of your photograph that would change a typical viewer’s description of the photograph (aside from color or crop), even if the tool is otherwise legal, and regardless of whether you intended the change when the photograph was taken.

- use ANY editing tool to create new image area, objects or features (such as lens flare or motion) that didn’t already exist in your original capture.

In my opinion, you've violated the rules. The idea of the photo is great but the clone job is imho, not that good. I'm not one to narc on anybody, but I'd suggest a self DQ. Unless you want a 'Pink Ribbon'. It's ok though, I recently got one!

Comment by JunieMoon:
Very impressionistic. Editing wise, there seems to be quite a bit of grain still. One of the ways to clear up some of the ghosts from pixels is to use a lower radius in sharpening and a higher threshhold. That I discovered by mistake. So now I keep the radius down to .1 to .4 and it really helps to keep things a bit smoother.

I'm sure you've already gotten plenty of comments about the apparent editing around the boats and far shoreline. You would have been much better off simply bumping the contrast and leaving them as silhouettes rather than this.

Nice photo - everything seems to have a blue tinge to it. There is definitely alot of character in this image, that is for sure.
