Nice image with lots of engaging elements but it doesn't hold together for me. I wonder if the each half could stand on its own.

I really like the scene and the color, but think the contrast is a bit too high.

Really nice comp and color, and the light brings out the color. I do agree with Bill to pull back on the contrast just a tad.

Greg, I really like the way the dark backgound makes the tree and the leaves on the water stand out. If you decide to cut back on the contrast a bit, do it very gently.

I love the way the tree on the right sucks you right in. Great shot Greg. I play with a pano crop too.
