Rotate, crop, pushed saturation and curves a bit... all to entire image. Added borders.. resize.. try to figure out how to get it brighter because it looks more contrasty on-line. Can't keep the file size down.. so, it is what it is. Maybe I will unsubmit before midnight.

This is a beautiful image and an excellent entry. Combining all four elements whilst also producing an image that is so appealing outside of the theme.
I particularly like the lines of the tree shadows and sunshine falling on the earth.
I love this a lot. I like the rich colour and lighting, but the composition and distractions bother me. Since this was an editing challenge I would have retouched the building on the left and the branch in the foreground on the right. [7]
The puddle is really hot. The foreground is pretty dark. A hard combination of scenarios to shoot together in the same picture without messing either one or both up. i think you did the right thing here as far as doing what you had to do, but I dont' think it has the strong visual appeal that we're looking for. Nice peaceful shot nonetheless
Pretty light and nice color too. I think you could crop off the building on the left and some of the bottom to draw the eye into the trees. :) Good entry.
