Nice shot Davie, but the color of the sky looks a bit unnatural to me...

I'm with Bart, this looks pretty artificial. Composition is pretty nice except for the things intruding into the sides of the frame (bottom and left).

Nice scene but I think your color enhancement went quite a bit too far.

I like the reflections. Another time, would consider moving the shoreline up or down by angling the camera. As is, the image is cut directly in two for no apparent reason such as placing items in to intentional symmetrical positions. I think the image may have been a bit overexposed to start with so, of course, would try a third to two-thirds less exposure next time. The colors would be intensified by doing that.
