Shot in the early morning, I know its a stretch but I thought it turned out and wanted to submit for all to see. The shot was handheld. Saturated and increased contrast .

First Impression - the most important one: I think that this is, as you suggest, a stretch for success.
Composition: The lines o the pond draw the eyes into the picture .. which is great.
Subject: Well it meets the challenge in that it is good each day to wake .. but the picture does not hold its own without the title .. therefore the DNMC's i nthe voting are probably valid.
Technical (Colour and light): I like this processing .. yes its over the top, but it really works well for this image.
To grow its vote?: Meets the challenge .. that is a good start .. if taking something out of the box the image needs to stand on its own.
Summary: Good shooting, you have a good eye .. keep using it.

This is a beautiful photo, but not - to my mind anyway - right for this challenge. It's a pretty narrow definition of success - being awake one more day.
