    I like the colors in the middle - nicely captured. The black band at the top adds nothing and the bit of dry land in the foreground could also be tossed overboard to allow this to be cropped as a faux panoramic shot (full width of what you have, but just a hair below the bottom of the water and where the black top begins leaves a much more powerful shot in my completely amateur opinion.

    Sounds odd I know but give it a try…you have great raw material there.

    Beautiful colors and exposure. I do think the darkness at the top is to much. The strip of green grass on the bottom left corner is not terribly distracting, but the shot would look better without what appears to be the shoulder of a roadway. Maybe get closer to the taller weeds next time. I would also remove the leaves encroaching on the right edge or include more of the tree next time.

    Colors look great. Like the others I'd look for a foreground element to lead the viewer into the photo.
