Cool! I like the tones and the atmosphere but I do feel it needs straightening a little (important with lake and sea compositions). I also think you should play around with cropping into a more panoramic format. It's good, it could be great! Regards, Mike

Hi Mike,

I did a little straightening, and cropping (more from the sky than the water).

small tweaks can have a dramatic effect! Yes, the water is more important than the sky here. The proportions are wonderful. As I get older I find myself less willing to accept the format of a picture straight from the camera - I look for the format that best displays the picture - be bold!
regards, Mike

would put it on my wall

Could see this on a wall, blown up to poster plus size. The clouds in the background look like trees or even mountains giving the image a lot more depth and interest, with out them not so much. I like this image a lot you should print some up and try selling them on ebay or to posters.com or something. Keep up the good work.
