It was very difficult reading all of the posts on my shot saying that I overaturated this and not be able to respond immediately. These blues are from camera and it was one of the most surreal and beautiful scenes I've ever witnessed. I will post my original in my gallery. Sorry that no one actually felt this could be accomplished in-camera, it was. My friend was with me when I shot this and i said to her "no one will believe these colors if I can get this shot right". Anyway, thanks for your votes.

Beautiful reflection and good colors. Maybe the reflected sky is to saturated but good work on editing a trees with a sky in the background. Its a tricky thing to do.
Nice color of the sky in the reflection. I think this needs a rotate up on the left, looks tilted. The strongest part of this image is the right hand side in my opinion.
I swear I've been there! Where was this taken? (in the end, I'm guessing many lakes could look the same, but I had an immediate sense of Dejá Vu when I saw this image)
