Reflections on the water, Cleeve Wood

Here is a painting I did a few weeks ago. It was made just after a Sunday walk alongside the river near Bath. There is a part of me that like this painting with the reflections on the water and shades of green receding in the distance, then there is a part of me that find this work rather gloomy and spooky... Can't make my mind up!
