I like it...but with the trees on the left and also the rocks, it appears a tad heavy~off balance...but I love the B&W conversion on this.

I feel the rocks lead me away from the mountain and doesn't quite flow for me, but I like the feeling with the clouds and the water. I'd like to see a little more detail in the tree to the right. I think the B&W treatment works very, very well here.

I like the way the rocks in the lower right follow the slope of the mountain in the reflection.

I get a subtle off balance feel also. I tried a browser crop from the left but it doesn't help. however cropping a bit off the right did seem to help, at least to my eye anyway.

It works for me. I share Curtis's notion about a slight crop on the right. Excellent comp, the B & W conversion works just fine. IMHO of course.

I wonder if putting that large rock in the bottom left corner would help weight the left side and add more balance. Maybe a couple of steps to your right and re-line up the rocks to the mountain reflection???

The B/W is very nice on this. That fog around the trees is cool.

I think the conversion is nice and I love that atmosphere in the trees to the left. It does seem a bit heavy on the right side.

Those rocks are a nice addition but I also think they might make the right side a little heavy. Maybe if you replace the rocks with some lighter ones it would balance out the scene a little more. All kidding aside, I think this has alot going for it.

Thanks guys, I'll post another comp in another thread that is "lighter blanced".
