Lovely lakeside scene with a great looking sky and reflections. I like the perspective and the addition of the canoe and weeds on the right.

Nice shot! The lighting is good, the colors are good. The only thing that I see wrong is you lost some of the detail in the clouds.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Good shot. The angle cuts off the boat which might hurt the score.

Nice sky colors - look over processed, but it could be natural as well. Like the dock extending into the reflection, with the canoe alongside. Anyone want to go for a ride?

Awesome colors and a great capture of the reflection on the lake. A little more contrast in the foreground would be nice, but I love the texture of the dock.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 12:46:02 PM
The dock needs more punch but its a nice story. I like the reflection of the sky in the water. Nice.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very pretty, but seems a little over-saturated. I love the reflection of the clouds in the water.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 03:47:09 AM
love that sky
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 01:35:41 AM
Nice composition, but the colours are not defined enough, the sky seems to blur into a blobby mess. The reflection works well though as does the silouhetted horizon.

Beautious! :)
