    Very nice colors and photo. I do wish that the horizon wasn't cutting the picture in half. I would have preferred maybe a little more foreground, Jeff

    Thank you. Here is the uncropped version, which now I like better.
    Ooops, I think it replaced the first one.

    I think catching it during the golden hour would have helped. The water would have been calmer and the reflection stronger. As it is a ND filter would have helped with the reflection and maybe a longer exposure would have smoothed the ripples.

    Nice one. I agree about the horizon line being too centered. I don't think there's much you can do about that in PP, unless you crop some of the reflection off which i think doesn't improve the shot. I like it as is. nicely exposed as well.

    Gorgeous colors! And the vignetting is very appropriate. Beautiful!

    Awesome shot! I think removing the teal cast to the sky could help this shot as well. Great sharpness.
