Nicely balanced detail throughout the composition. An interestingly strong geometric form is, uh, formed by the foreground geography. Little muddy patch at lower right kind of bugs me though. Did you include it in the frame to balance/anchor the rest of the picture?

Yeah, I was trying for an anchoring effect; unfortunately to get the type of reflection I was looking for, this mud flat was all that was available as an anchor.
