Very nice colours-for five *, but the left side is upper as right...for the eye.

Left side fog is too much. If you make with lesser intensity, it will be really brutal work!
:D :shrug: :thumbsup: but anyway-4* from me my friend. Keep it up.

Hmmm... personally I think this could still benefit from more work. Right now it's not very convincing and I actually find it a little confusing - it's not immediately clear where the horizon actually is, because of the reflections on the water which make things look very strange. The entire top right quadrant of the image looks very strange indeed, and there is also a skew perspective. The lighting is also weird in places, and far too bright, considering the small sliver of moon (it's very obvious that the original photos were taken during daylight - you need to soften things up for night light).

I guess overall your image is just lacking cohesion between the different photographic elements. Additional painting and tonal adjustment may help to improve this, but I think it will take quite a bit of work, because the two photos you chose just don't really go together very well, in my opinion.

Just my honest critique!
