Not much to say about this shot as it looks fine but could do with a little more in the way of impact.

That is a absolute perfect window view you have. I have a good feeling you will be shooting many shots of these. I'll be watching you.

Well that is a nice view! I love the long reflection on the water. Very nice colors & detail. The water is very calm but you can see the ripples. Great pic. 9

Pretty view! The colors are nice but compared with other sunset shots this one is lacking something. Perhaps you could have tried it vertically to get rid of some of the bushes?
