I know where you are coming from but... ISO was actually 80. It's the HDR thats brought out the grain which tbh i quite like.

really? now i wouldnt have even guessed at any HDR on that - very subtly done with excellent results

Subtle HDR used which I like, great composition as well. The only thing bringing it down for me is the over-exposed white areas on the boats. However, it may be due to the jpg compression that they have lost their detail.

Other than that. :thumbs:

It may just be my monitor, but the contrast looks a bit off to me and for an HDR there's not much detail in the foreground. The bottom left corner and bottom centre are very dark with only certain greens coming through and they look a bit 'too green' if you know what I mean. especially when the greens in the distannce are soft.

The contrast of the strong/subtle colours of the boats & horizon, and light/darks of the foreground & water don't really work for me I'm afraid. Nice composition though, I'd like to see less on the right of the signpost and a bit more foreground leading you in. Maybe shoot it again slightly lower & to the left.
