Here strong light and well defined shadows really work together well as does the color of glaze and rust. I like the forms, light, depth of field, and overall composition. Very nice image. A 9 in my book.

Love those shadows! Rust seems a bit oversharped, though, tad bit unnatural.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Hiya Wendy, long time no speak!

I have to agree with two of the comments on this shot - the branches are distracting to a beautiful view, though they provide nice shapes to silhouette. The photo does need contrast though the lack gives it a slightly dreamy feeling.

Something else I noticed here - the view is nice, but not spectacular. I think this photo needs a more concrete subject than a nice view into a sorta nice lake. Maybe a canoe or a fisherman. Not sure, but something to add context.

Good luck and happy shooting!
