Sure looks like a great spot indeed!

I just had a look at you image in my converter to analyze it. My
first check was what body it was captured, either the D800 or
the D300 — of which I know nothing about. I assume the D800.

That very body is giving a great DR and it seems like you didn't
take full advantage of it! My converter reads 009/255 in the low
lights and 252/255 in the high lights. If your image renders these
numbers, something must have been neglected in the reading
of the data since your camera is very capable of recording all
from the dynamic range of this capture.
 
Lovely image Bazza, reflections make such a difference to a picture (y)

P.S I don't care what the analyser says...

So, the combination of both, your data and my analysis
confirms my suspicions.

MeteringMode should be Matrix so to give you a better
chance to grab a proper DR.

Even in the posted jpg, I can see details in the darkest
areas and this means the data was recorded — the D800
is crazy for that — but the data was not properly extracted
nor the setup at capture.

Your image has far better quality than what was posted!
 
Not bad though for a camcorder to get a picture that good. The data you quoted was my error sorry this is the correct data for that photo.
I have taken that shot many times and Ioposted the camcorder one. Terribly sorry to mislead you

As I posted correct data above
