I am a beginner in photographic art and I will not be angry if

someone is to hard with comments. 10x

Raul, welcome to Photo.net. Keep shooting and posting more - some people will take the time to not only rate but also provide constructive criticism (feedback). Here are just a few thoughts:

 

Shooting this as a silhouette - was it by accident or intentional? At any rate, not a bad choice but since the land is a silhouette, ideally we'd want to see something of interest outlined. Your position or lens doesn't add much to the lines there - trees are too small to have any real impact. The foreground water has a reflection, but there's no real drama in it. In this image, the sky has the most drama.

 

What you'll need to develop is a sense for what components of a landscape are most important and you'll find yourself overtime composing within the viewfinder differently. Many starting out along this road have a temptation to frame scenes and subjects in a very "centred" manner - horizons at or very near the middle of the frame, key points of interest dead on in the middle...always... when frequently there are more dramatic compositions available.

 

Ignoring for a moment that the foreground and silhouette are not all that interesting visually, the image feels somewhat off balance (to me at least). I find myself wanting to shift your camera lens to the left to explore that darkness. You might even want to consider a square crop from this image, exploring how moving the square from one side of the image to the other (crop and make new copies of the image for comparision) change the "feel" or mood of the image.

 

You may also find it helpful to look into neutral density filters, and graduated ND filters, which will allow you to darken the sky areas while allowing closer to normal exposure in the foreground. If you browse the gallerys where with the Landscape keyword you'll see many examples of using these techniques.

 

Slower shutter speeds might provide a more dreamy looking water surface in the foreground -- again, experiment. If appears you are using digital - so experimentation is cheap and instantaneous.

 

I'd also recommend looking at other people's work, in large quantities. Its really helpful to see good and bad examples from a diverse set of people to help our own eye become more critical of our own work.

 

Congratulations!

The interest for me is in the clouds and the reflection on the water. So I'd probably crop the right side, where there is less interest (the grey wedge at the horizon doesn't add anything ...), perhaps even 'square' the image to see what it looks like. Experiment with different crops until you find what speaks to you. I use a mat which I've cut into two "L" shapes to help me edit my frame. You can adjust the crop in a variety of ways to help you see different combinations. You may be amazed at the different "feel" you get with just a little bit of cropping. Nice mood in this shot, some real mystery in the clouds and dark tones.
