Hey Mark,

If you like it, that's good and probably most important. For me, this one doesn't really work. What appears as limited DOF along with that low cloud in front, to me renders this like it's a miniature. I see that others seem to like it, but for me, while it's certainly interesting how that low layer of clouds is in the shot, in the end, it visually bugs my eyes a bit...

Mark, I wold have to agree with Jim here on the composition. Its too unsettling to me and gives me tension. Is that what you going for? I keep looking for something to anchor me and it isn't happening.

The color is good.

Hi Phil. Thank you for your feedback. No, tension is not what I was going for. When I view it (and it seems at least or more than half of the viewers) I don't get that feeling at all. It is all peace all the way. But that is the thing about art, I guess. We all see things differently. I don't negate that some feel that way. I also very much agree with there being other viable crop options. I appreciate the feedback.

Thanks. Centered crops always produce a mix of feedback. I have always been a bit of a rule breaker in that way. The first 4 years of shooting landscape with attention I mostly did 50/50 crops on reflections. A lot of the feedback was mixed as a result. I don't do this nearly as often these days, but sometimes an image just says center to me. This was the case here.
