Hi
like me, you have a wish to capture the effects of the early and late sunshine.
I think you only need to trim out some large areas that are not the fsubject of your pictures and to get a sligtly sharper cloud pattern. I know the weather and climate must be accepted as they are. Addition of some foreground shapes can add interest. Two examples of my photographs that have drawn favourable response are listed in the next note together with Martin's detailed assessment of my picture West Shore

Also the large angular structure in one picture clashes with the finely detailed plant beside it.
What is it that I don't like as much?
It's a nice peaceful picture. The reflection in the water is great. The colors in the water are intense and vibrant. The green colors of the hill are a bit weak it's perhaps just slightly overexposed. The same applies to the sky it's a bit overexposed (in the right hand side there's only white and not blue anymore.
The composition is centered (the water level lies in the center of the picture.) Centered pictures tend to be a bit boring with time. Perhaps I would have loved a bit more foreground, perhaps a lower shooting position with more foreground and the water line on the upper third would have been more interesting and a true portrait format would have been better. The tree in the lleft side foreground is too dark a fill in flash could have brightend it up a bit. Perhaps also move more to the left side and have the tree more in the picture and avoid the overexposed part of the picture.
Conclusion.
A nice reflection, some exposure problems, some composition problems, the scene is not very special or seldom could be in a few parts of the world that I know... definitely *** for the nice reflection one could possibly vote ****
