hdr feel to this image
river looks green and I can't see how this coloring is "natural", leading me to suspect the color balancing though maybe the afternoon sun reflecting off greenery created such a phenom
weedy bits in foreground "junk up" the photo IMO
Sharpening around tree branches is tricky ... it is very easy to over-sharpen small details like tree branches. Notice the white halos around the branches? You have two choices: 1) turn down the sharpening, or 2) undo the sharpening in the areas that become overly sharp (by using the history brush, or by putting the sharpened image into a layer and then masking out the sharpening).
