I love the grasses up front! The blue sky is too much here, id crop half of it, just above the tops of grass.

I like this. There is a sense of just being present at a nice time of day in a nice place. The wedge of orange makes a nice contrast.

John,

Just that touch of mist/steam coming off the water really makes a difference here. That really adds depth and compliments the grasses up front, which I like very much. Have to agree with Stan though that there's a lot of empty space up top. I think a significant crop would be a nice improvement.

I really like the fg grass and the slight mist rising. I agree with suggested crops. Nice job
