I think a tighter crop might work. Ordinarily centered compositions work well with reflections-causing-interesting shapes, but there is just a bit too much here still to really bring that element out of it. Otherwise, nice colors.

I'm hoping to leave comments on as many photo's in this challenge as possible... out of (currently) 1113 images, I gave 93 of them an 8. Your image was one of those 93, placing you well within the top 10% for this challenge.
I love the really deep rich blue and green in this shot which counter each other really well. The symmetry of the shoreline is pleasing, and the shy gives just enough light to lift the image from murky obscurity. Nicely shot.
Good luck for a strong finish in this challenge.

Serene and lovely. What are the two glaring shite spots foreground? I think I would have cloned them out. But, to each his/her own.

The border takes away from the pic in my opinion. Also the horizon is dead in the middle.. it would look better i.m.o. if it were in the upper third.. take a lower angle on the shot. Shoot from closer to the ground :)

A beautiful view, but it looks like you missed the light. Except for the two white flowers in the foreground :-)

Beautiful moment, love the white peaks in the distance. Perhaps a little dark in places but this also adds so I'm in two minds about it. One thing I know for sure, its a stunning photo, best of luck. 8

The blue and greens in this just blow my mind. This is stunning. I love the natural congruency of the water and sky.

This image feels a tad dark. There is a bit of posterizing going on in the sky which is kinda distracting.

Very peaceful and serene. IMO the lens flare centre left tends to draw the eye away from the mountains at the end of the lake

beautiful scenery, but contrast is too high here and your processing created banding in the sky

Love the blues, the flares (?) on the water are a bit distracting.
The tonal qualities of the distant mountains are very good, must be the advantage of not living in the "Smokys"

+ A great poster image. Should have some kind of motivational statement at the bottom! - The sky is quite noisy and some reduction would have improved it further.
