Da,m the basic editing restrictions: a simple graduated Nd filter could bring that sky more into line with the rest of the shot, and the equivalent in 'shop is forbidden. This is good work: I'm not wholly sold on your composition - specifically the partial includion of that foreground-most rock image right. But the light is gorgeous, and well caught.

Great light, texture and use of slow shutter to create an evocative photo.

For this to work as well as it ought to, the middle-ground rocks need to be tack-sharp to contrast witht he ghost water. The tonal;ities of sky and water are beautiful, the overall color is lovely.

wonderful image, you kept the ragged rocks sharp while giving the water a nice soft feel. Great use of lighting (sunrise?) and best of all you stayed away from the typical submission idea. You are one of the few in this challenge that shows yourself as a professional (or at least very advanced hobbiest). Good job.
