It looks too much off :S Sorry but what I would recommend is blurring out the clouds with the smudge tool or liquify and going with the long exposure effect (maybe B&W too ) by removing all the detail from the water. That way the picture would look more matched

Well it's a lot better, that's for sure! I still feel it's a bit weird and unnatural as I always look forward to waterscape shots for the nice reflections on lakes.
