    Nice one. Being there's nothing really interesting in the water to grab your attention, I would re-crop this to just below the land-water line. I really like the light rays you got here as well.

    Seems a little soft. Can you elaborate on the settings/equipment used?

    Another from the same time. Wondering? How would this look black and white? I like the colors. A little more interesting with the water foreground?

    I like the color one better :-)
    Still, maybe try a crop just above the tree line? Only keep the clouds and the rays... just a thought.
    The grass in the water (bottom left) is distracting a bit too.
    Cheers,
    Marc.

    I really prefer the last one which is color and I believe uncropped?? You have a lovely reflection, well done.

    I was looking at your signature. I thought Harry Callahan said "Nobody, but nobody puts ketchup on a hot dog" (Dirty Harry)...:D

    Yeah, I agree, this second one in color is just great! clap.gif

    And for the record, I loved your introduction: "an amatuer photographer with dreams." ME TOO!!!! I might steal that and use it from time to time, with your permission, of course :D
