Comments/suggestions welcome
It has a very cold look to it (not a bad thing or a good thing, just
an observation). I really like the way the reflection is broken up by
the branches on the bottom and the ripples on the top. Well composed,
nice balance.

Getting that effect was more or less luck. I snapped the picture at just
the right moment to get the ripples at the top of the frame before the
breeze made it all the way to the bank. I've gone back there several
times hoping to get some similar pictures, but I think the odds are
pretty slim of getting the lighting, the clouds, and the still water
with the occassional breeze all at the same time again. As we get
further into spring, this bank will become largely inaccessable as the
undergrowth gets thicker, and the water will start to get choked with algae.
