Nice image. The meat of the orange is a little dark and the slice is a little too bright. Overall a nice postcard and I can almost smell it. Good Job.

You only used 400 of your available 620 pixels, bigger is better. Great color!

Very nice. The only thing I would do is pump up the blue in the sky a bit. 8

I like the composition/perspective and the tree is beautiful. Too bad the sky is just white.

Very beautiful location but the focus is a bit soft or maybe camera shake and the image is a little dark. Very nice composition. Good Job.

This photo is very chaotic and I don't know what to focus on, but maybe that is what you wanted to portray. Nice Job.

Yahoo!!! My first Blue Ribbon.

My daughter picked this photo and she is demanding some of the credit. I had chosen a cactus bloom but she insisted that I enter this one instead. So, thank you Valerie for your advice.

To answer the main question that everyone had, the color shift was done using levels and hue/saturation in PS Elements.

Thanks to everyone that took the time to vote and make comments.
