Nature Beauties

WOOHOO a RAW data photo.  when i first got my camera i was doing a wedding shoot and i had it set to raw and couldnt figure out how to convert them to JPG for the bride so i changed the whole setting of my camera to just take JPG.  however this is a terrible idea because it limits rescueing photos greatly.  the pathway in this photo goes slightly diagonally and is therefore attractive to the eye.  also the moody sky is great too.  i could lighten this photo up a bit in lightroom and make her a beauty.
i love this picture and it is also a RAW.  the colors are awesome with the most attractive pinks and oranges in the center to draw you into the picture.  also the ice is just melting so there in the front is some ice which i think is a nice filler in the front corner without being super distracting.
the front foreground of this photo on the side is filling in great.  the angles of the sides and back all point directly to the center of the photo and takes the viewer into the photo.  the pinks and oranges are attractive compared to the blue which draws you to the center.  the reflection is peaceful and nice to look at also.
im not sure that the branch in the top right corner of the photo is quite placed right because the eye follows it and goes out, especially since the sky is bright at the top too.  if this photo was edited i could hopefully save some of the trail on the bottom portion of the photo to make it lighter and show its curvy nature and make this photo lead you into it instead of out of it.
the trail of this photo is great here.  it seems like it is just barely poking out from under the leaves.  when seeing the trail i feel like i uncovered a secret.  i like how the sky pokes out a little at the top but isnt so much that it is all that is interesting in this photo.  the front tree could have had a few distracting things removed from it however.
