The scene, the colours and the reflections are very pleasing. The The thin white and fairly heavy black border definitely detract from the image to my eye. Because of the size of the combined borders, they tend to dwarf the houses and trees in the scene.

Pretty scenery. I like the strong colours, although the greens look almost too saturated.

Personal taste I guess, nice image but oversaturated for me.

Nicely exposed for both ground and sky. This is well done, and the only thing I don't like here is the big black border.
