The far shoreline is almost dead center of the image, with the main focus on the water, which is kind of boring. I'd suggest cropping the bottom to bring the focus more on the far trees, with the branches on the top helping to frame the image.

Beautiful, looks so peaceful

I'd crop this just a wee bit more to get rid of the disconnected branch bits at the top. Otherwise, this is a great photo, with good balance of colors and values, and the lonesome mallard a wonderful focal point!

Thanks MossyB - you've been really helpful as always. I've adjusted it now & think it looks better.

The red berries on the right would really have made this photo, if they had been sharper.

Yep, you're right, but couldn't do it with that lens.

Thanks Nator. I thought so too, but apparently not everyone thinks so.
