I really like this image, but I'm not a fan of the large silhouetted trees. Personally I love clouds, especially big rain clouds like this one, so the trees are distracting me too much. I love the sun shining through the clouds and on to the water below though. Very nice.

I was going to say the same thing: I am not a fan of sillouettes in general and the tree just takes up too much of the frame for me. I like silouettes if there is some spectacular color to go along with it, but there is none here.

I tend to like the silhouette effect but must agree that in this case there is a bit too much of it. In general though this is a nice image where you have retained the natural light - a shot I can believe is real.
