What's not to like? :) It is a lovely scene that fits the challenge extraordinarily well.

The only little nitpick and it obviously didn't affect your score negatively, is that your horizon is completely in the middle. While this affords a nice view of both the sky and water, moving it up or down might have made it feel more dramatic.

THAT SAID, I think this image exemplifies how the "rules" of photography can be broken and still be a wonderful, strong image.

Great image and congrats on your ribbon.
