    The thing about landscapes is the dynamic range, Mark You will want to use GNDs or blend exposures. In your shot there is a lot of clipped dark areas. It is still a good shot, but to make it better you might want to get some light into those trees. You could do this by taking two exposures; one for sky and water, and one for the trees. Then blend in photoshop or photomatix pro.

    Thanks Dan, This is what I need. I did take a few exposures but I have no tripod so they did not stack well.
