For me it lacks a little bit of atmosphere. Maybe you were a few minutes too late to catch the very precious moment when the sun even starts to paint the gray of the dawn. I would consider to darken the lower half by graduated-masked curves until the stones and the goose (?) become more prominent.

I dared to roughly dodge your picture just to show what I mean.

Good idea, already thought about a cr**. But I wouldn't miss the goose and a little bit of the water.

I quite liked the OP, Chris. If I were working it, and I'm not, I might darken the lower left to kind of center and draw your eye past the goose and up into that terrific light and mist in the trees. I can't tell with this size, but I might also play with adding a touch of contrast or clarity at places here and there in the trees. I bet you had a great time.
