I think, this sky could have been made more dramatic. Otherwise very nice colors on the ground and in the water.

Great work at capturing the reflections beautifully. Although unfortunately the trees/bushes are spoiling the shot! 5

good overall...the composition lacks interest, so perhaps a different stance or perspective???? 6

nice shot in a beautiful place. I wish that a little different angle had been made to eliminate the distraction of the yellow grasses in frame left.

Very buse scene but still nice. It seems a bit tilted to the right? or just the perspective?

good reflection , nice details & colors. Would have loved it more if there was more sense of depth in the shot. An interesting foreground (as an example) could have helped with potraying more depth. 6

Bummer about the trees being there, good use of the rule of thirds.
