 Taken while visiting a friend in South central PA. Did very little post editing due to lack of time and I felt that the image stood up pretty well as it was. Boosted Hue, contrast and saturation. Cropped and done!

Just when I think I have an idea of what will do well in a DP challenge.... I really cannot understand why this shot did so poorly; sure the saturation and hue may be a little overdone but it is really not far from the original! Oh well, keep trying. Thanks to all that commented.

The colors look rather muddy here, and the image feels unnatural somehow; too much sharpening perhaps.

This is such a lovely image whose impression could have been enhamced further by avoiding the magenta tint which hardly ever appears in skies. Overall the image is strong and it gets bumped.

It's a silhouette alright, but it should've come out better in a reflection challenge.
Beautiful photo though.

wonderful colors, almost like an impressionistic painting.

the colors look very strange and unatural to me in this image, perhaps oversaturated?

Perhaps it's just me, but it seems slightly perverse to be taking digital photographs of Amish country. Intriguing shot, though, and processing

I think I would have tried to get the sun behind on of the trees.

whoa whoa. I'm a big fan of a busy/detailed image, but this goes a little far... I think it's mostly the oversaturation that's getting me. the reds in the sun, the oranges in the water, and the strip of green are just too saturated.

This looks way overprocessed to me, too much color saturation and sharpening imo, sorry!
