I am commenting because you asked for critique and I don't like seeing any threads going unanswered on these forums, even if the answer like mine will probably be of limited help.
I think it was a good exercise for you in the use of selective blurring, something I have applied before in PS to water, but not to skies like this. It achieves the look you are after in a similar way to a stopper. To really work for me thought the mountains need to be pin sharp, I don;t know if the reason they are not is down to missed focus, atmospheric haze, lack of sharpening when re sizing or your camera. But my point is softening the sky and water is one way of doing things, reversing your thinking and having more clarity/sharpness to the mountains will also help them pop of the screen more relative to the LE effect areas.
Only final comment is shoot in better light, and as a composition it needs a bit more of the screes on the right hand side to balance against the empty space on the left of Yewbarrow (?), it would then also work as a pano crop.
