I took that image during a trip in Kerala, India. I woke up very early that morning to shoot some firshermans at sunrise, I ended up with that very centered composition and that serene scene. For the anecdote I took that image with my 50mm lense because I unfortunately dropped my telephoto lense in the water that day, only 1 hour before taking that shot. Fortunately that lake is pretty shallow so my boat driver dove and caught it back after only 30 seconds and now it still works!

Julien this is a nice photo but you should concentrate on the rule of thirds. Too much sky....
sorry about your lens, just did something similar a few weeks ago, tbh though i think i like this being wider... while the rule of thirds is the "go to" composition for something like this I prefer this composition here because of the color... the sky and water are so close color wise that it adds to this image having it centered. The ONLY thing I can think of to change and this is me really really searching is adjusting the vignetting (to lighten up the four corners) regardless this is one of my favorites here.... and it doesn't break this image. just trying to be as constructive as possible :)
I don't mind the centered horizon on this one. It's okay to break the rule of thirds sometimes.
