Sunset Pond in November. Used levels and brightness/contrast to enrich the color and contrast. Cloned out small white piece of paper caught in branches in the forground. Sharpened with unsharp mask.

Beautiful subject and a perfect take on the challenge.
I would have rated this a 10 is it weren't quite so centered. The branch in the foreground is a bit distracting dead center.
Well Done! ((9))
Good composition and pleasant scene. This is a 6 to me but could easily be a 9-10 if shot with better light/sky and if you had cloned out the very distracting sticks at front center.
A nicely composed shot, a couple of points that didn't let me score it higher. The tricky lighting conditions here with the dark foreground and the bright light reflected from the water means just that, the foreground is dark, ist not that bad though. The bright sky is washed out, almost all white. A graduated filter may have helped darken the sky and allowed a brighter foreground. Its also a bit hazy in the distance, maybe the direction of the light or the time of day. Well done though a nice image. A six from me.
