Blue skies

The weather today was much nicer, but still on the cold side. Unfortunately, the littlest TMG was feeling awful and so the Mrs took him to see a doctor. During their brief absence, I spent couple of minutes exploring different water views to shoot.

This is an HDR image and I chose it because I liked the curving branch, interesting reflections and cloudy sky. One of the biggest challenges of this location is that the views are fantastic and I am still trying to figure out how to capture them in a visually interesting way. I tried to frame this shot with the branch. Do you think it works?


Processing:
HDR using -2,0,+2 images and Photomatix
Clone stamp to remove small distracting branch

Constructive criticism always welcome
