Last Light

I took this picture about a year ago. Recently I re-edited it. Would love some feedback🤟

The mountain in the background is getting some seriously bright sunlight on it. Was that raised in editing?

I wish the water was smoother and that there was something in the foreground.

Hi Janice, the more I see of your work, the more impressive it is! The only feedback I would give you here is that you are light bending again. Darken up that left ridge line (and don't forget to match the reflection) and you will be on the money. Great work!

The left side of the mountain is too bright compared to the rest of the scene. I would suggest either raising all of your shadows so the scene is more balanced or darkening the mountain with some luminosity masking. Personally I would do a bit of both. I would also think about cropping it so it's more of a panoramic image. The weeds in the foreground don't add a lot to the image and I can't help but wonder why they're there. When I'm shooting a scene like this, I generally make the disgusting trek through the mud so that I can get a clean reflection or find something engaging to use in the foreground. It's a gorgeous scene with great light to work with, the only thing I see when I look at it is the bright spot in the background.
