I like the serenity of the scene, Charlie. The low clouds and bright grass add a lot to the scene. Iā€™d be tempted to remove the human elements in the background.

Hi Charlie, I really like this scene with the fog and peaceful water. The colorful grass on the right adds just right the contrast to accentuate the mood and add interest. Good eye to recognize the potential of this scene.
