It's looking good, Mike. The eggs in the water remind me of mirelurk nests :]

The hdr's sunlight is coming a from a different direction than the foreground,
lending the composition a sort of studio-esque look. I haven't played with
environment maps for a while, but a simple scale <-1, 1, 1> might fix it.
