 just to clarify in response to comments and suggestions:
-saturation was only increased +5 in PS
-yes the horizon got it's tilt from the fisheye lens. I myself like the effect and that was what I was after. But I understand not everyone likes fisheye shots.

Nice landscape. Good, vibrant colors. I like how he "Puddle Path" leads me into your image to the cloud shrouded mountains.

very cool but the horizon is curved - fisheye? Would be better with a straight horizon - 8

avg vote, good colors and landscape, appears to have a slight warping affect (bends downwards from center).

Nicely captured the reflections, the ground line looks kind of arched though.

Wow. :) DOF is perfect. I love the colors and the perfect reflections in the puddle path. Those clouds are something else. Great job.

This photo is too photoshopped for my taste, but a nice shot. I am unable to vote, just passing through and leaving comments.

NICE! I love this... the well-framed "path" is simple, yet leads to a mountain, and the contrast is awesome. The curve also emphasizes this as it reminds me of how the world curves.

Possibly a different angle would help. I would like for the puddles to lead more to the large mountain. Cropping off some of the grass to the right would help.

Well composed. Could you have brightened the foreground and warmed it a little? That may look better I think. 7
