Very nice picture.

I like the rocks and rocky bank of the lake.

Exelent point of vue and DOF. I like this photo because of the first ground with the rocks.

Well done.

Lovely POV!
I attempted a WS to give the POV even more impact. As the image was downloading for me to see, I was really impressed with the low angle of the picture. While the rocks in the foreground (on the shore) look nice, I think what really makes this picture is the level it has been taken at.
I hope I didn't completely destroy what you were going for with the WS. I'd be happy to hear what you think! :D
Kind regards,
Julia

Personally I find the buildings on the other side of the lake intruiging.

I did a workshop in which I brought out the details in the stone to the left. As I think it is underexposed in the image. I think the dark side of the rock is a bit overexposed now compared to the rest of the rock. But is that too evident now? And while I was at it I cropped out most of the sky to make the image more compact.

Looking at Julias workshop I realized she was quite right. Although cropping out all of the stones made the image very different. I tried to leave a balance between the sky and the beach. And I also added a frame. I'm a small copycat of Julia. :-)
