I like this picture. I do not have any suggestions about how to improve it, but it would be nice if you included some information about the picture.

I very much like the photograph and its composition.  A minor suggestion - the photo is just a bit too symmetrical for my tastes.  I would crop the right about 5% but ensure that the pool of water has sufficient space on the right hand side - then I would crop the bottom to retain the ratio of the photograph (1.25:1 or whatever).  I would like to crop more of the bottom but wouldn't want to sacrifice part of the sky or the beautifully-lit rocks on the left.  Some sharpening would also seem to be in order.

Wild colors and very nice composition.  Not sure why there are not more comments on this fine image.  Perhaps when you get it right there is nothing to critique.

Thanks Timo for your photograph. The colours are quite beautiful... but... I'm sorry but the first thing I saw was a monsters 2 eyes and mouth as he lay under the water...like one of those creatures in Lord of The Rings, Star Wars type movies. I just felt like I was about to be engulfed into his cavernous mouth.
