I love the composition of this, but I do find the green to be a tad over saturated for my personal taste.

So many great things about this photo. I love the way my eyes are lead around in this, both through the water and the branches. The color is very relaxing.

Delicious! Center flow just draws you right in. Color saturation looks a hair overdone, but that's a minor criticism.

only critism would be that some of the green leaves are getting a bit too vivid... but still a solid 9
