the border is not appropriate for this shot, it needs something lighter

What works: vibrant colours, path into the trees, vertical lines of the trees

What doesn't work: white sky

I found when I scrolled down to effectively crop the top ~2/3 of the image off the top it just popped. The trees on the left balance the gorgeous tree on the right that is hanging over the water.

I think even a vertical shot of the trees on the left sans sky would make for an engaging image as well.

Except for the things in the water (which can easily be gotten rid of), I love this image. The tones, the details in the water and sky, the textures ... everything. To me, this is beautiful, and yes, I do honestly, like it better than the color image. :)

B/W Club!

this is a striking shot and i totally agree with you that the color is much stronger than the b/w. gorgeous gorgeous color here -- no reason to mess with it.

Hi Tristalisk,
Now this one is my sort of image, I love b/w landscapes and this is well up there with the best. The sky especially is very very nice, Lots of texture aith all the gradients and shapes pulling the eye into the highlight where the sun pokes through the cloud. The highlight is nicely placed on the third line, maybe the horizon is just a tad high, but nothing too wrong with it. The reflections too carry the tones up and left towards thos highlights.

Theres not much I can offer in terms of making this much better, perhaps just cloning out those bouys in the water, but hey nothing serious.
