Comment by Yo_Spiff:
Nice perspective. Maybe a little too dark and a bit too much negative space on the right that does not guide my eye toward the subject. Do you have any perspectives from maybe a touch to the left of this? Something like this (though maybe not as low down):


Edited to add: Melonmusketeer's is a good example as well.

Comment by Citadel:
I like the different layers in the scene. The reeds anchor the image in the foreground, the, mountains create depth and the sky is moody and dramatic. The water is dark but still contains good detail.

One small note: if you enter a shot in challenge make sure that you don't have text on it. Its fine here but adding it to an entry will get it disqualified.

eta: I see you've entered a few challenges so I am guessing you already know that.

Comment by bassbone:
three images in one - the quiet little corner of the rural world in the foreground, the intensity of the sea with the white caps, and the majesty of the mountains in the background - excellent

This is a nice scene. The left edge is quite dark. If that is by choice, then it is good. The clouds are a big part of what makes this work for me by setting the mood.
It is similar in point of view to one that I entered in the last "Red" challenge. It got some comments about being dark, but it also picked up a lot of views and comments.

Almost fantastic! I love the different layers that you've given this picture. The sea, mountains, and sky look amazing. A great foreground would have really sealed the deal! It might actually just be the color of the grass, it looks a bit yellowish, and not in a good way unfortunately. Valiant attempt though!

I like the softness and the leading lines in this winter scene.....
