Are we seeing the whole photo here? The copyright text looks cut off so I wonder if there was more photo than what I'm seeing. Maybe it's this iPad I'm using while away from home.

For me, I need the seat to be sharp. By placing it right in the front and large like this it becomes the main subject with the vista behind the backdrop.

Right in the bottom left of the shot is something fuzzy that detracts from the photo in general. Not sure if it could have been moved but I'd have cropped in or something to eliminate it even if I had to clone it out.

In terms of b&w, I think this needs more contrast. It appears to be more about greys than it is about blacks and whites.

Composition wise I like very much aside from the distraction I mentioned above. The path comes in from the lower right and leads our eye along and into the photo and along the lake, a good use of leading lines.

The water horizon on the far side of the lake needs to be leveled. Still Water always sits level and our eyes, after a lifetime of observation, notices unlevel water very easily. Less than 1 degree sometimes. Very important to level the photo if any element is plumb or level.

Looks like the photo was taken with the sun very high in the sky but you've gotten away without unsightly shadows I think. Good job there.

That's about all I can think of right now
