My first comment on Deviant Art :
I find this picture very interesting because the composition is classic, but also innovative thanks to the two lines of strength.
- The first line of strength starts bottom left to top right : the merging between the swimming pool and the building is perfect, as well as proportions and colors. Furthemore the luminosity gives strong but not too violent contrasts.
-Then the one starting in the forest towards the building, who underlines the perspective, plus the green tones adding more coherence.

However, I find the bad point is about the sky.
The harmony in the picture is broken by all these clouds.

Indeed, the ehtereal aspect of the clouds is too different from the other part of the picture, which is neat and clean.
Furthemore, there is too much contrast between the sky and the ground, and not enough by th factory in the background.

Maybe the sky needed a little more work on it, by overlaying a tint and decreasing a bit the noise.

Nevertheless in spite of this little point about the sky, your image is perfect in its composition and its color, it is very good work, very pleasant.

(Please excuse me for my English, I am not too good at it)

The water is so perfect! I wouldn't say completely still though as you can see very small waves but I like it! The lighting and contrast is just phenomenal

Really nice work with the HDR. I've seen a lot of HDR-pictures that look way to over the top. This doesn't.

Very nice. I like the composition and the colors. The noise in the sky isn't that bad and I personaly don't mind a little bit of noise in an HDR. But I think the sky has a bit to much contrast. You don't need to blow out the sky to give drama to the photo.

Over all a good peice.
