James, it looks like you’ve pushed the saturation somewhat here, but that does make the reds and blues stand out. This is a fine collection of fallen “bits” along with the water reflection.

I’d be interested to hear if you did actually push the saturation, James, as this looks like peak foliage to me, plain and simple. Love the contrast with the reflected blue skies in the water and the mix of white pine needles and hardwood leaves.

In reference to the saturation, yes ,I increased the red and yellow vibrance a bit. I wanted the center of the image to have a bit of pop.
