A critique.  Regardless of who's providing it and what their qualifications are or aren't, is an opinion.  And the thing you have to remember about opinions, is that everybody's got one.

That said, here's mine. 

Regarding the color (shrug).  Yes, I suppose a little less saturation probably wouldn't hurt, but I don't see that as a major problem.

The crop however is a different matter.  Granted, a little off the top and maybe the left side might help.  I think the bulk of it however should come off the bottom (foreground).  Say everything from the top of that tall tree a little to the right of center, down.....Izzy

It is a nice image but it does look like you might've gone a little overboard with the sharpening tool.

As someone already said, this is indeed a nice peacfull image.

Colors, lighting, reflection, etc.  Don't know how possible it might've been, but I do believe shooting from a position that placed the boat a little more to the left (without losing the mountain on the right, and cropping up from the bottom a little, might've made for an improvement....Izzy

Excellent capture......Izzy

First of all. A critique (regardless of who gives it) is an opinion, and the thing about opinions, is that everybody has one. In the overall scheme of things, the only opinion (regarding a particular artists work), is the opinion of that artist.

Now! Regarding this image. I like it. But! I think cropping off that section of gray (for lack of a better description) water at the top would make for a better image.

Also. I don't know if the image as shown here (main subject centered) was in fact, the way the image was composed at the time of capture. If it was, I think composing it with the main subject slightly off center (more to the right) as if it was moving into the frame. Would also have helped......Izzy
