What I like: First the post-processing is well done, I like the fact that you captured the old tree in the foreground and that the photograph is sharp and well focused throughout. Looks like a pleasant place to spend the day. I see something in the water maybe a dog or something right in the middle that gets my mind wondering what it actually is.I like that you didn't go to extremes and that it looks very natural.
Outstanding scene for HDR. Amazing detail throughout, but especially on the shady side of the tree trunk. The texture of the rocks on the shore is striking. This is a really good example of complete DOF from toes to infinity. Great job on the sky, with it's pleasant tones and glorious detail of the cirrus clouds. The asymmetrical composition is exceptionally eye-pleasing. I so appreciate the horizon line above the vertical middle.
