I have similar pic in this contest and I regret having it there cause after having a few comments on it, I see actually what it is lacking. It is the same here, there is nothing to catch the eye. I mean it the best possible way. Good luck in future contests.
There are some black splotches in the foreground that are a tad distracting and could have been solved by just a little crop or clone. Wonderful reflective, serene photo.
Excellent photo but - what are those blotches doing in it? (lower left and lower middle)? You should have cropped them out, you would still have the horizon in the upper 3rd, and it would not spoil the image as it does now. Pity...
Of all the sunset and such images of the challenge...this is one that really stands out for me...the light is beautiful, the viewer is not knocked over by an oversaturated explosion of color...instead the color creeps up on us in a subtle and quiet way...serene and quiet...this makes me wish I were there.
