So rich and vibrant.. its almost like the sky is on fire!
I like how the foreground leaves frame the shot, though it would have been nice to have more symmetry to them.. some higher ones on the left.. to really feel like you're looking through.
Is it a little wonky?

I love this though.. would look beautiful on a lightbox

Yeah, the composition isn't my favorite. The scene itself is very sparse but I just couldn't resist the light.

Wow, thats amazing. I love how vivid the reflection is! And i love the clouds aswell, its like a contrast in colours, the dark clouds layered over a golden sky, I think its so amazing! It looks quite surreal to be honest, but i still love it

Thanks so much. HDR processes really helped me preserve massive detail throughout the sky and also the green in the trees. It was a summer evening I was very happy to have documented.

That's stunning. The way the clouds are, and how everything seems to have a reflection make it look great!

Thanks, glad you think so. I was debating even posting this for a while; I didn't think it was composed well.

I'm glad you like it. I'm a little shocked people seem to like this as much as they do. For a while I was debating even submitting this. I thought the composition was too heavy on the right and was lacking a focal point, not to mention the huge lens flare I had to remove... I do like the colors and the sense of place though, so my gut won over my better judgement in this case.
