This is the best shot in the challenge but may not make the top 20. Something you are accustomed to? 10

Trading post...
I love the editing but I'm not really too crazy about the subject. I'm kind of trying to see around the bridge to see what's behind it. Maybe that's what makes it interesting, I'm not really sure. Actually in scrolling back and forth to look at it and comment I noticed that if I crop if off below that star it takes a completely different look and I really like it that way.

Trading Post -

I will start with the fact that I prefer this much better than your original. I like that there is alot of different stuff to see as you look over this shot - the branches up top, the reflection, the trees under the arches. A much more pleasant picture overall. Maybe a tad soft as a whole but you can see a wonderful array of textures throughout. The bright white spot on the right i nthe gap on the bridge is a shame as it is a bit distracting. The pieces of tree in the others work well to soften those areas. I do like the postprocessingf on this. It gives it a funky feel but the light greens may be a bit too yellow from these actions (I dont have actions that I know of on Elements so I am jealous). Good shot and great improvement.
