 HDR on 3 photos. I like the curvy look from the fisheye, but chromatic aberration is an issue, especially when you combine images and tonemap. I even removed it (or so I thought) and combined tiffs instead of the raw files.

convert from raw
combine 3 tiffs in Artizen (-2, 0, +2)
tonemap in Photomatix
Nik Efex tonal contrast
Lots of spot editing: dodge/burn/clone/etc
blur water a tad
a bit of Nik Efex Glamour Glow
curves
levels
hue/sat
resize
sharpen

Wow - a new view of an old haunt of yours! Very nice, and awesome sky! (I can't see any of the abberation of which you speak, by the way, so as far as I can tell, you got rid of quite well.)

Holy Cow! That's terrific. I'm such a fan of the fish eye's curve. Love the velvet blue water.
