The challenge with taking pictures of beauty such as above, is that there are so many possible distractions, that staying focused on what your subject is can be challenging. With all the other details in the picture, one faces questions of how to bring the viewer's eye to the subject that you want them to see. Yet there is much beauty to behold in the other details also - how much is too much and how much is not enough? The artist's challenge - when to stop.
This scene has a sense of peacefulness about it, and I toned down the brightness in the surrounding vegetation and emphasized the sky reflected in the water - a bit of blue saturation added. There are many details around the water and reflection that I feel add to the overall picture - both the realism and the sense of being there. You probably would do it somewhat differently and we would both be right!
