wonderfully atmosphereic shot JJ, but I wonder if perhaps your cropping could be improved here? There are three parallels of form going on - the far hills and the furthest bank of reeds, the small clump of reeds to the right and the detached section of clouds by the open sky, and finally the darkest clouds at the top of frame and the bank of reeds in the foreground - all of which add emphasis to the reflection of that area of sky. I wonder if seeing a touch more of those topmost clouds, or less of the bottommost reeds would give a stronger graphic element to the shot? Obviously that would place the horizon dead centre frame, bu in a shot with such parallels I don't believe that would weaken this image as it would so many landscapes ...
Just a thought - but my immediate reaction on seeing this was that the framing seems odd.
