The branches don't do the photo justice. But still pleasant to look at !

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Wow, that's ISO 800? Looks great, and that Tamron seems to be doing a sweet job too :-) Nice postcard-type shot, very scenic, good framing with the branches flanking you. For some reason I really like the boulder in the lower right; it gives the shot some weight to help compete with the white of the clouds/mountaincaps and complements the reflection of that big stormcloud next to it. The blown whites are my only real nitpick.

Compositionally it's quite centred, so I find that it could use just that little extra something to fill in the middle...a swimming moose or beaver, not something necessarily big, but just there, just enough to leave a few ripples on the water's surface, something to draw the eye and leave the onlooker wondering what they just missed seeing.

Hope this has been helpful

Susan

Nice to see a landscape that's not cooked beyond recognition.

I think it is a clever idea to use the branches as a kind of frame, but in this particular images I feel like they are a bit to dominating. The mountains and the forest in the background are beautiful and you have captured them really well. The reflection is also very nice. Good luck in the challenge :)
