I think the grass is just right to balance the sky. Another excellent HDR.

The results are certainly worth it, Colleen. This is just stunning. I think you're onto something about combing a RAW and HDR and masking out what you want; I've been experimenting with it but need to try more.

I really love the point of view you chose to project in this shot. The positioning of the camera and the over abundance of water make for a really tranquil scene.

I also like the idea of anchoring the sides of the frame with something that has to do with land giving a quazi natural frame idea. Really catches you eye and pulls you in as well.

I like the interest on the different planes as well the shoreline in the forground left leading to the boats further away and out in the water, then the mountain in the far distance really gives a great feel of depth.

Overall I just love all the different hues of blue in the frame, its my favorite color and you have captured it very well.
