Taken in Snoqualmie National Park during a family hiking trip near Mt. Baker. This isn't actually Mt. Baker, however I forget the name of this peak. hehe.
Saturation Increase
Curves
Dodge and Burn
... Really not to much editing.

If the sky weren't blown out it would be better. Also, I don't like the composition. The mountain being further left in the frame, at the expense of the uninteresting left end of the lake, and a crop just below the tree reflections would improve the shot.
Beautiful. I love the detail in the trees and the far shore. Colors are excellent. Couldn't ask for a more perfect reflection. The only think i can think of to improve this would be if the clouds above weren't blown out. They are perfect inthe reflection but lost inthe sky.
These shots always drive me crazy when it comes time to post-process, but I think you did a good job. Trying to keep the sky from getting too light and keep the trees from getting too dark is not a fun task. Having the horizon line dead-center feels funny to me here...I think pushing it off-center could have added extra impact to this shot. It is beautiful, and well executed besides. Good luck this week.
