Nice reflection. Great color.
I'm curious if there was any post processing done.

I only adjusted the contrast, that really was the color of the sky it is just breath taking when there is no pollution to ruin it

Since I can't view a larger picture, it's hard to tell if the trees on the left have any definition, or just too dark? Also, the tops of the mountains look a bit blown out. I'm wondering if you could take the reflection and flip the mountains to darken up the snow-covered peaks a bit.

That being said, it truly is an incredibly beautiful photograph and scene. How large do you plan on making the print?

First off, you could frame it like it is and it is an amazing shot.



That being said, if you shot in raw, maybe adjusting the curve, brightening the dark end a little more wouldn't hurt. Giving something to the trees besdies pitch black could help the shot. Doesn't need a lot, just a little.

LEaving them black like they are still looks amazing.
