That's a b-e-a-u-t-y Bob! One suggestion I have is to crop to bring the sun to dead centre. That would be in-keeping with the minimalist motif. It looks slightly off centre to me.

An interesting dilemma as per centering or leaving as is. I find centered (I did it in Photoshop), my eye goes to the sun first, then moves outside, whereas at 1/16" off center, right, I see the whole scene first, then my eye goes to the center. I guess it depends on how you view a scene, but like a chapter in a book, I want to digest it as a whole and not in individual sentences.

Just a thought.

Strange, the original file is centered. Something must have gotten shifted in translation.

Simple and beautiful. ( the sun is indeed just a tiny bit off centered)
