The reflection is gorgeous and I love the colors (particularly the blues and greens). Nice job!

A wonderful setting to take a break.
The HDR-like processing of the clouds is not very appealing to me though. The white of the clouds becomes a dirty white (or grey if you will). I like the reflection better. And I wouldn't even mind a crop of this that chops off the clouds on the top - the reflection is what hogs all the attention anyway.

The crop seems too tight for such a nice garden, the pink in the clouds does not look natural.

Nice scene. Reminds me of a hotel I stayed at in Kenya years ago.....

Two things here that are just killing the image:

1. Reflections are always darker than the sky.

2. Clouds should not be pink.

An interesting subject though... Good choice there.

Nice photo and composition. If it were mine I'd have played with it a bit more (and I probably would have ruined it) to get a bit more darks and contrast in there (especially to add some pop to the nice clouds). I like 'em dark and moody, so what can I say. This does have a nice, light, airy feel to it, which is quite nice as well.

A nice view, but a bit plain and static - HCB tended to find shape and form that gave energy to his captures.

This is silly, but why is the image so small? I like the composition of this image. The horizon is slightly tilted, though.
