Quite gloomy picture, but also very soothing and peaceful. The sky is so dramatic, which contrasts the rather calm horizen and water. Nice one.

nice shot gal! this sky is dramatically strong and impressive;-) great composition. maybe a more off centered frame would be even more impacting? what do you think you should give it a try.-)

Nice B&W picture, may be a bit dark

Well captured the contrasts. I think it would be better if you've rotated the image horizontally, because the way of the photo will be left to right, following the dock to the deep of the lake.
Very well done the B&W duotones.

Interesting style of photography / PS work Gal!
The sepia works well here! Makes the sky look extra dramatic. Like the diagonal line of the quai.

Very very nice pic! I love the warmness of the pic and the beautiful light. It accent's the beautiful clouds and the 'nervousness' of the water.
You should see the Russian film 'The Return' BTW, it has absolute brilliant filming in it. It's as photographic as film can get...
Good work!

A very dramatic shot with great sky. The compos is well balanced in terms of sky & see. I would try to get the pier more on the left side, thus getting more of it, anyway well done Gal.

I like the clouds here. In Shanghai we never get clouds like that only white sky day by day. The view is beautiful but maybe better if person is on the boardwalk. Good work.

I like the simple composition, good in B/W, I agree in the hoizont line is a bit tilt to the right, should be straight.
