Lighting is really great and I like the contrast and different shades of blue and white. Only thing I think it really needs is one interesting subject to bring the whole composition together, like maybe a gull sitting on a block of wood. Good job.

Good composition with the feel of a painting about it

this composition seems cluttered and quite dull. I think if you got lower or twisted your angle a bit it could be much more unique.

are they truly diminishing? how horrid!
great colors.. really cold feeling with the blues.
the rocks/pier the way they are framed in the shot causes a barrier to the eye that is trying to see the expanse of the lake.

Nice contrast and colouring but a straight horizon might be an improvement.
