This seems very nice to me Meli.... I think the exposure seems right (IMHO) it really depends on what you were trying to accomplish. Your highlights are not burnt out and your shadows have not lost detail. Which is good exposure. The lens flare is interesting, and lends a sunny feel to the image although it is something that people usually try to avoid (it's usually a bad thing for a photo)... The only suggestion I have would be to crop out the foreground blurred leaves on the left. I find them a distraction and do not help the image compositionally in anyway. A step to the right or a slight shift in angle while composing in camera, would have eliminated those. Overall, excellent and pretty picture.

I am, therefore I create.......
