Congratulations on your ribbon! A beautiful shot and excellent demonstration of leading lines.

I have to agree with your statement of how much to do or not to do, post editing. I entered my first challenge and was frightened to do "too much" to my photo and most of the criticisms I am receiving is that I did "pop up" the colors! Oh well! Live and learn!
