What is your subject?

Very nice, peaceful scene. Excellent control over the depth of field. I suspect you have worked out the hyperfocal distance and applied it in order to keep everything in focus.

The exposure looks OK, and the color balance seems to be dead on.

I think the picture could be improved upon by having a human figure sitting on the near bank facing the opposite shore. That would heighten the interest level.

The OOF branch in the top left is distracting from the image.

I agree with the above.

Somehow it's a picture that can hold your interest because of the depth in it. But it really lacks an interesting subject to hold your interest even longer.

thanks for the advice next time I will put a subject in the picture :)

whomever is in the white shirt on the far dock is distracting to me. I just see a white dot in an otherwise very pretty (and green) landscape. The leaf in the upper left isn't bothering me.

The pictures draws you to the center but there's nothing there to look at.
