The picture looks a little soft... is it because of resizing?

i think it is caused by my scanner Epson1660...:cry:

Compositional wise, it's good. What time was this taken ? If you wait till around 6pm to 6:30pm, the sun will be behind you casting strong orange rays on the scene. The higher banks behind casts a shadow that envelopes the lake making it look dark and deep (eliminating the actual yucky green colour of the lake). Check out my thread on little guilin

yes!

ur pictures of "Little Guilin" are very nice and much and much better than mine!

Ur suggestions are very helpful for me!Thank you very much...~~~

For my picture, I took it at 5:00pm. But at that day, it is heavy cloudy.

Do you think I could use a orange filter to create some specail effect next time?

I find the modern buildings in the background somewhat incongruent with the classic look of the rest of the composition. I would rather choose another angle that excludes the modern buildings.

Regarding the orange filter thing, there's no harm trying and I'm not sure how the results will look like. That's one of the fun of photography
