Lovely photo--great composition, nice rich tones. Sky looks a little strange to me, though--the water looks very real and sharp, while the sky looks surreal and processed. Did you do something different with it in post?

I like the shot and the lines of the sky, but wish the bright spot in the sky was smaller. Great shot.

The processing puts electricity into the shot.
Great contrast between sky and water.
