synapped > Red Barn

I posted this to get your honest feedback.  This scene jumped out at me from the road, but the photo isn't something I'd frame and put on my wall.  This was the only position where I could catch the reflection of the red barn in the water.  I've done a slight Orton to draw out the colors, but I faded out the effect quite a bit 'cuz it really blasted out the leaves on the left.  Is the problem post-processing, or do you think I just got the comp wrong?  You know how it is when you were there and know how it felt that day and just can't get that into the shot...

Looks like somebody already took a bite!  These are very poisonous, I understand.

In Photoshop I made a copy of the background layer and changed the Blending Mode to Screen, then played with the opacity a bit to lighten it. After that I used the Flood filter for the reflection. Voile -- art!
