I like it. One thing I would do is soften the sun reflection on the
water. The sky, clouds and the rest of the water are so nice and soft.
But I see an edginess in the reflection part that sort of grates on my
eye. May be harsh bokeh, I'm not sure. In any case, I find the overall
look better with that softened.

Maybe it's only me, with the 20/10 vision, anyway.

Certainly easy enough to remove the most obvious part. Nobody but a
local will then know the hill is really at least in part a short branch.
