The overall composition of this shot is kind of boring, with the mountain in the center of the background dominating the photo and just "sitting there..." It would help the visual movement if you cropped it on the left, so that the eye would then be encouraged to come down the right side to the house at the bottom, then following the ground lines back up to the left side of the mountain to start the journey around the photo once again.

I have to disagree with Mossy B on this one. I would keep it just the way it is as far as compostion goes because my eye went right from the mountain to the little house. To me, the little house in the middle of nowhere is VERY interesting. It is all opinion though and what interests the viewer. The ONLY thing I could say is possibly mess with the curves or levels JUST A HAIR. This is so beautiful to me!!

I wouldn't change the entry either. To me, the eye is naturally drawn to the house as it sits in a brighter patch of grass compaired to rest of the image. Our eye is naturally drawn to the bright parts of an image. To me, this looks like a great place - I could imagine exploring the hills and surounds as a kid ... sigh

To my point of view, composition is excelent, not perfect but excelent, All set a visual game: the river, the house, the mountain, the fog, the green blanket... you can almost smell the moisture.
The picture IMHO is full of cold optimism. Good luck!

Stunning

Awesome!

Espectacular colega!

Thanks everybody!!

We'll be lost if such thing happens!

Woah! Fantastic!

Nice and clean picture...good blending,nice color ...from a long time I didn't see a picture like this...one of my favorite

Fantastic work...i like small details...shadows are very good...good luck author

Great imagination....Nice work...

No SBS? Everything is great, except the shadows. The light sources for the bridge and the city are different in your image.

Congrats for 2nd

Congratulation! I had the same idea but I'm sure I can't do better than you

congrats on 2nd place

Thanks everybody!!

Congrats for 2nd!

Congrats!

Congrats for your second place, DML!

nice

that's when you know it's too cold :P good job

not an original idea, but well done

A nice idea but IMHO not really on theme. You are supposed to show how fire and water are fighting each other for dominance.

Maybe if you put a fire flame on the other candle??

I agree with Jawshoewhah and i think Raytedwell's suggestion of adding a flame would really change this image for me. I'll hold my vote for now.

Ok, thanks for comments and suggestions, I´ll try to add the flame

Enhorabuena amigo

Congrats for your second place, DML!

Amazing! Great imagination! GL

Some very clever choices, especially using the spare wheel to complete the missing one... genius!

Fantastically amazing idea! I don't think that I've given that before. Great work and really good idea.
