I was hoping for some cloud to add drama to the sky but got this instead. What do you think?

Hmmm, I'm undecided, Chris.

I really like the pink colouring of the sky and the reflection on the water. That's really nicely done.

I'm just not sure about the yellow flowers - whether they are bright enough, or interesting enough to the overall image.

Thanks

Thanks for your thoughts Paul, i did consider the same thing. I wasn't to sure about the bush in the foreground. I did try a similar shot without it but then there wasn't enough foreground interest. Had there of been a nice rock or some of driftwood i think it may have worked better. On the other hand you can only work with what you have. It was nice to be there regardless :-)
