What I like about the photo is that you have found something interesting for a foreground subject. Imagine this photo without the rocks in the foreground and it would be much less interesting. Now for what I don’t like! To me it’s too heavily “weighted” on the right side. The rocks are primarily on the right and even the tree line on the horizon is thicker on that side. The open water on the left of the photo leaves a lot of empty space with nothing interesting to look at. Also the angle of the rocks is creating leading lines directly to the right side of the photo and adding to the feeling of being too heavy on that side as well as leading the eye out of the frame. This looks like a location with great potential and you’ve done a good job finding something to work with as a foreground subject. Of course a colorful sunrise or sunset wouldn’t hurt it any either! Too bad we can’t order those on demand!
