I love this pic. Makes me want to go to Ireland even more. Its like the perfect postcard picture.
Just to make it better crop a little bit of water in the foreground so that the ducks are on the lower 1/3 and voila you have a perfect rule of thirds picture postcard.

Try to resize before uploading, you're stretching my screen! Haha! =P

Really love the reflection on this one, and the stunning colors. I just find the dock/platform on the right a little bit distracting. Maybe if you would have shifted a little bit to the right and then took the picture to remove it. I also agree on the cropping for the rule of thirds. There is a little bit too much of the sky.

A great photo nonetheless! I really want to visit now! =P
