Hi Lance, you have captured the reflection perfectly. I like the panoramic feel to this, as ones eye follows the water line from side to side. I think adding a tad more contrast may work in this.
Hi Lance, Beautiful light along with a sharp reflection. The cloud is a strong element in the image and aids in the overall impact. I fooled around with some crops and found I like it best as presented. Nice one Lance!!
I like that you went with a larger reflection then sky. Works great as presented. The variety of "V" patterns in the image (the clouds, the blue, the mountains) all play off each other well and provide a pleasing flow in the image as the eye works around it. Nice job.
Great mix of primary and secondary colors Lance! I think the lower right corner is a bit empty. I would suggest cropping the bottom but that puts the horizon at 50/50 which some scream about. I think it works though. A beautiful scene!
Hey Lance,
Late to the party......I too originally felt like Paul....but the more I looked at it and the more I tried different crops the more I was drawn back to the OP. I feel the larger space balances the mountains nicely as the colors also do. Very nicely done!
Excellent Shot Lance. Love the composition, colors, and the shapes that make up the scene. I probably prefer the bottom cropped and reflection centered, but that's just my taste and this works well also. Well done, I'll make a note to try and get there some day.
