First thought is envy - I wish I had made that image!
Being more critical:
Have you tried cropping a tiny bit off the bottom, 'cos there might just be a bit too much white for some people.
There is a tiny spot of cloud on the top edge left of centre that might just draw the eye away from the middle (could easily be altered with PS).
Have you considered cropping about 20% from the right side, or about 5% from the left. I think that you could get several good images from the one.
The last thought is still envy!

Lovely image Alistair, I don't think I would crop it. My only observations apart from really liking it are:
- I would possibly try to bring the shadows up a little to reveal a little bit of detail
- It may be worth trying to dial out some of the magenta tones which I think are being exaggerated by the cheap ND filter, but on the other hand these tones lend the image a mysterious feel

Yeah - there's a bit too much on the magenta tones.. And, yeah - the foreground could be cropped slightly (take a wee bit of the RHS out too).. But, hey!!.. That would be blown up to a decent-sized poster, and with a nice frame, that would be up on my lounge wall taking pride of place!! Now, go grab your camera and take a few more like this!!

Perhaps dial down the magenta. But boy what an image. You found a great spot.

A great image, very spooky! Well done with that, It'll make a great display large on a wall somewhere. I would trim just a bit off the bottom, and maybe a bit off the right side. Colour and refelections are spectacular!

Only needs a little trimming as others have said.
But even without that, why is it not entered in te weekly competition?
