I couldn't say why, but I find that an awesomely interesting picture. 
Kind of photorealistic yet stylistic. Reminds me for some reason of Rene 
Magritte.

Wow! A lot of work in this image. Like Darren, I find this interesting too. 
I think it's hard to determine what time of day it is because of the sky 
colour, it seems too dark to me, which made me think that this was a 
snapshot of one of those rare moments when the sun peeps out from behind a 
cloud during the dark build-up of a storm and highlights everything in 
sight - usually in a bright orangy glow. Eerie moment.

 Can't wait to see the dragonflies too.

Progressing very well! Very well done.

Imho, the menacing sky is important in this scene. Perhaps, as Steve wrote,
the light should be more orange...? However, I certainly do like this
bright, washed-out, light in contrast with the dark sky. It underscores a
sense of growing electrical tension in the atmosphere and nature waiting for
it to break.

I was wondering about the blue and yellow spotted color of the roof. Seems a
little out of place here. Should it be rusty?

I like it very much! as the others, I like the dark sky yet bright sun (I
had a try at that kind of lighting for my povcomp entry)
I liked the warm sunset light color you got in a former version though

Orange glow comes with a long atmospheric path.
Notice the shadows - the sun is nearly overhead.
I think this captures well the ambience of an impending cloudburst in a 
subtropical environment - at least as I've experienced them.
Well done Joanne!

Bright sun up and a little behind you. Dark and menacing clouds in the background. The
proverbial 
calm before the storm.

Truly beautiful.  I think it should be a Zazzle poster. The composition,
colors and contrasts just draw me into it. The still, deep,
clear-but-tinted water in the foreground looks like one of those nostalgic
"swimming holes"--very inviting!  Like you, I find it hard to decide what
the *best* time of day should be for this scene. In situations like these,
I usually say (with great difficulty), "Enough! It's done!"

A really nice piece of work; my new desktop image!
