Alex,
I don't have anything negative to say - if I'd taken this shot I would be very pleased, as you should be. Just a few points though. This is a great example of throwing away the 'rule of thirds' and having a symmetrical shot. But, the shot seems to be tilting to the left slightly - due, I think to that bright green sward of grass on the right. You could rotate it about 1.25 deg clockwise, even though the camera may well have been level when you took it. The water could be selectively contrasted to make it match the sky more. Finally, you could crop a
small amount from the bottom to get that perfect symmetry. These are small changes, and I hope you don't mind but I edited it along these lines. This scene holds special memories for me, I had a very happy walking holiday with my ex-wife here (we stayed in the Fish Hotel, just out of the shot) in 1977. Happy days.
