 OK, this is my first entry ever so I hope I include all the right stuff. Edit info:

no crop
shadow/highlight
auto colour
auto levels
shadow/highlight again
cloned out power lines from building
cloned out picnic tables near building
and three pieces of grass in fg water
as well as guy wire near building

bumped up saturation and altered
hue a tad in master and in
yellow, red and cyan

spot saturation with sponge tool
set a 9%

burn tool set at 10% for midtones
used on falls and sky

and finally duplicated, resized and sharpened

I used my 17-55mm kit lense - although I do try to NEVER use it unless desperate - it's the widest I have though:-)

I'm very new here so I apologize for the late response - I didn't realize until after reading a couple threads in the forums that I could see these comments after voting was finished.
So thank you very much for your kind words and generous votes. Richard, this is a tough place to figure out but I'll keep at it as oftem as I can - it's a great way to "challenge" my thinking and creativity. But the best part is - it's just fun:-)

Wendy, A very nice shot!! I like that you chose a low perspective and used the edge of the water as a leading line!! You picked a very competitive challenge for your first entry. I don't think I've seen that many 7's before.

Very nice...lovely colors and the overcast sky really makes you feel 'fall'. A 9 from me.

Beautiful. Love the gray sky. The red on the house makes the shot. Great leading line. What a pretty scene. 8
