This is a 3 image stitch that I put together through Canon's Photostitch. I added a warming filter in Photoshop along with a Nik Software filter called soft focus which gave the image the radiant glow. I then adjusted the contrast. The image was taken in the late moring here in Victoria, BC Canada.

I like almost every thing about your photo. But the bench gets lost in the bush. If you had moved to your left a few feet, it would have been totally silhoutted against the sky and I might have liked it better.
Looks like a beautiful scene. This might be a good candidate for an HDR image. The blown out sky and underexposed land just take up too much space in this shot.
I like the semi-panoramic approach to show the vastness. I kinda wish you might have moved a couple steps to the left to have the bench more open to the water (ie not have it's view blocked by the vegetation.)
I like this picture but think if you had moved to the left another foot or twothe bench would have been more visible... Other than that, looks like a place I'd love to sit for a spell.
Nice photo. I would have liked it a bit more, if you could have gotten the bench at an angle where the trees (shrubs?) in the distance hadn't blended in with the bench. Normally I am not a fan of blown out highlights, but it really works here. Gives your image a painterly effect.
I don't understand why you wouldn't change your position a bit to the left so this bench was fully defined. For me t's a crippling defect in an otherwise truly promising image...
