Last Sunrise of Spring

This is a 3 shot comp from yesterday. Appreciate any comments/critique. Thanks.

Very nice composition Brian I find the reflections on the water too bright and dominating, some PP might help.

And maybe a crop from the foreground to reduce the area of dark reflection? That would probably mean a different size ratio though.

Thanks Binnur. I may do another version with the lake reflection reduced. That was pretty much what things looked like. I took several sets of bracketed photos with and without a 10 stop ND and the lake reflection was always dominant.

I don't mind cropping or changing aspect ratio but I do like the dark area and would prefer to keep it. Actually the dark area is caused by a lack of reflection - it is the stones on the bottom of the lake.
