Eb,
HDR processing artifacts above trees in right side of image is my only complain. Maybe touch of blue tint in sky also?
Composition, detail are good. Landscape is astonishing!

Ha! Ha! Ha! For some reason my kids also think I need their physical support every time I'm ready to push shutter button.
Some times they come to try stability of my Slick 7000 tripod during long exposures.... :)

Larissa, you missed with focus here. I'm sure tfilin on the shoulder of person on right side wasn't main point of interest.

Giovanni, very nice color and lines crossing composition. While trees near canal are creating feel of scale, it's not enough in my opinion. Why didn't you step into image?

Main problem is motion blur. You need to use tripod when shoting in low light conditions, even if your camera have AntiShake system.
You also need to perfect Neutral Density Graduated filter work. Here right to pop corner is darker then rest of the image. I would try diagonal positioning of ND Grad.
With low light conditions and wide angle lens, use
manual focus to infinity.

You can also lower lens a bit to get more reflection from river. Try Circular Polarizing filter to reduce haze. CPL will require slightly longer exposure, but you can compensate it with f/5.6 use. Use manual focus to infinity.

James, my camera has RAW+ setting. Each click creates RAW and JPG files. Sometimes JPG is better. Very seldom, but true. And by reviewing jpg(s) I locate favories in thumbnails fast, then process them in Rawshooter.
Great shot here. With wide angle Hypperfocal point is so close, that you can easily use f/5.6 or f/8 instead of f/22. By the way f/22 is always softer in detail even with Canon, minolta, Pentax, Nikon lenses. f4-f/16 is best range. Don't be affraid of fully opened diaphragm as well, especially with 15-30 sec exposures! Take a try.

It's good. if you are searching answers to perfect shot like this you may:
1. try using shalow depth of filed. Which will make mother and child ultimate center not only compositionally, but in subject.
2. You can also trying to convert this image to B&W to find the answer. Conversion to B&W could reveal flaws invisible in color.
3. Placing them slightly right inside the frame (rule of thirds) will make this image stronger compositionally. Viewer eye always starts from left top then finds main point of image.
Hope it will help.

Ron, thanks for your comment. I got some snow on lens, but not much because after flash I holded both hands over lens to prevent snow landing on the glass.

Depth of View makes amazing things. Here because of it and perfect timing it looks almost like they are questioning her. Person in uniform behind doesn't care about her. Cool thing ist that she could be key of event that they are looking at now.
I was stopped by police and security personel in DC, USA multiple times while making images on bridges, Railroad Stations, near Government buildings. I never had problems after explaining who I am (amateur photographer) and why I shot (to get nice images). They juyst asked me to avoid shoting security equipment and personel. No problem.
Kambiz, life is crazy. But we still need to live and enjoy.
I have iranian friends here. Great coworkers. I also have sister with her family living in Israel. Wish World could be safe for everyone.

Thank you very much, everyone! Very appreciated. Light rays in the fog are very challenging for exposition. Digital with instant result helps a lot. Generally you need to overexpose scene a bit to get effect like this.
