Good demonstration of HDR, love the water and the rocks, colors. I think that the ghostly person on the right would be better if he/she were more solid, or else eliminated. Also consider less rock and more water in foreground. Very nice.
I am no sure that your people 'add' to your shot, I find them placed in a way that takes away from the scene and they compete for my attention being on opposite sides. I really do like the landscape part of your shot tho.

Having the person moving from one side to the other during shooting is a distraction to me -although it is probably the point of the shot. The colors are a little too intense, but the use of HDR to bring out the details in the foreground without blowing out the sky are well done
Great colors and concept. At first I thought your shot was too grainy but after a second look I think it's just the colors in the rock (which.. wow, those rocks are really awesome) since your sky and water look so great.
Neat colours and DOF, but I would prefer to see this with only the person on the left - the other ghosted person is a bit too ghostly for me! But nice work
the idea is very good. the details on the rocks are good and even the colours are good. why that cut on the boy/girl on the left? you need of a transparency on the legs of the man on the right for a good result.
Nice idea to try and balance the rock in the upper right with the person. However, I think it would work better if the person were more in the lower left corner.
The HDR affect seems a bit over done as the rocks in the foreground appear a bit cartoonish.
How GORGEOUS! I wish I could see the whole person in blue, but the photo is so incredible in every other way -- it is only a minor distraction! There's such a stunning display of light, colors, shadows. I'm not an expert on HDR, but from what I know, this certainly looks like a fine example to learn from! 9
I find the ghost image to be more of a distractant than anything else. The rest of the image is very nice - only the blue jacket looks a bit too processed
