Amazing light, super reflection.
Super minor nit...the two intruding branches at the frame bottom

Gotta love that alpenglow! Great reflection too! Maybe just a hair too much tonal contrast on the sky but it's still believable.

Superb reflection! I really like the light you captured on the peaks. Aside from John and E.J.'s comments, I notice quite a few dusties in the sky, particularly on the right side. Other than the tiny nits pointed out, great shot!

For me this is pleasing symmetry . The warmth agains the cool blue is a great contrast too. Lots to look at here - I think.

Beautiful reflection and glow. Agree with EJs comment on the tonal contrast in the sky.

Looks more like thew mountains are blooming; which is even better. The reflection is perfect.
A great photograph is absorbed by the eyes and stored in the heart.

A very fine image, nits aside. I love the alpenglow, and the reflection is perfect. I would lighten the sky for sure, as the refection in the water is at the same luminosity. It would go a long way to making the image more believable.

The color layers on this work very nicely indeed.
