Greetings from the Critique Club!

A shot with a lot of potential, and the comments already highlight the main problem with this image - the lighting is flat and gives everything a sodden overcast. More contrast and a hit of saturation would help your colours. The comp is very centred and thus just doesn't invite the eye to linger and explore. I'm guessing this is a handheld shot, whereas for landscapes (esp on such a drab day) a tripod is invaluable. Then you can increase the depth of field, open the shutter and not have to worry about handshake :-)

Feel free to PM me,

Susan

Very lush - somewhere that gets lots of rain, I'd say! I'd rather not have the horizon be dead center when the sky is not particularly strong. But it does set a rather damp and sorta dreary mood.

The color is a little flat, if the colors were a bit more separated it would be stronger
