It look pretty good to me, except the water seems a bit odd. I'm not a painter so I don't know what else to say. I'm sure water, light and shadows are hard to get right.

I like it! But I think the reflection should capture more of the hills behind the water.

Really nice, liked the first one but the second picture with the added colour in the water is great.

I think the reflection is a little too stiff, but other than that it's very nice!

I like the coloring of the water in the first pic, but agree that it would look a bit better if the reflection of the sunset followed the contour of the hills more.
