Originally,I took 2 series of 5 shots with the horizon at 1/3 from the top in the first set and at 2/3 in the next.And I ended up making a pano with the 2 hdr pictures that I generated with the 2 sets.So,now,my horizon is roughly in the middle and here it is and I'll start the party with it:

So was the water,so,on one set,the sky had the main character and,on the next,water got the main part...and I ended up with an horizon in the middle...

This is my punt at it!

I love it!

Here's my first shot at j-c's lovely images using SNS-HDR Home.





I lightened the shoreline and increased its saturation slightly in both versions.
I'm not sure whether I put the red sail in the right place

And now, a dramatic version - again processed with SNS-HDR Home

Martin,knowing the place,I would expect the sailing boat to be bigger(and there isn't much water there:we made our helix suffer there...).It's best to follow the wharf(it's deeper).Other than that,I like both of your 2 versions.
PS:maybe it lacks a pirat on the sailing boat.With one eye,of course and a big knife in his mouth...
