Welcome gbird please take a moment to read the new rules for posting images to the critique section. You can see them here -> Critque Rules (http://digital-photography-school.com/forum/showthread.php?p=96657#post96657)

Please include some information on why you took this picture, what do you like about it any post processing you may have done.


Have you cropped this image at? I wonder what the surround area looks like was this a small pond or the edge of a lake? Have you tried rotating the image 180degrees?

I think the quality of the reflection is whats powerful in the image and not seeing any land works well at least I like it :) I think having some more sky may help the image breath a little more.

i'm a big fan of water feflections.... colors seem to take on a life of their own and your image is no expection.....great color and your water is just still enough for the viewer to know what this is a reflection of.....

if you're not going to use a nonwater oject to anchor this shot.....then i would follow pinball's suggestion to flip it vertically......and if in the flip you see the water's horizontals not being all that level, then consider too, a crop with a slight rotation.....

thanks for sharing....
