just some reeds on the beach at eagle lake. i am not sure if the reflection is too dark, the sky too "white" where it shows through the clouds or the overall colours too muddy and orange

Great job! Very nice, just not very exciting. Nice color and movement in the sky. However, I didn't score this highly because, a water shot, or even a shoreline shot, does not always mean 'beach' in my opinion. And meeting the challenge, to me, is the first and most important thing, if that isn't done, then anything else is unimportant. Doesn't mean it's not a beautiful and creative shot. I went back and forth on how to score your pic, but I do vote low for those that I don't think meet the challenge, so to be consistant, I am voting this lower than I want for the reasons stated above.
The idea was sound but the calm water and subsquent mirro image makes the picture too noisy - my eye doesn't know where to go. A little wind rippling the water would distort the mirrored image to give it substance and a surface. Good effort none the less.
