Looking through my portfolio there was only a couple shots I could realistically recreate... this is the one I chose because I think it had the most constructive comments made of how I could improve the shot.
Here is the first take:
The bushes/plants in the foreground of the original were not really attractive this time of year so I decided I would take advantage of the driftwood piled up against the shore and inlude that in my new composition.
Many of the comments to improve my first entry were about the dead space at the top of the photo, and the unnatural vignette at the top. I think choosing a horizontal crop works much better for this.
See if I can improve on these stats of the first take:
