I love the scene and it has a lot of potential. As giantmike mentions the saturation has been pushed too far. I also see some haloing and strange blending (assuming this is HDR) in the trees. The being said I have no idea how to do a successful HDR with trees that go into bright areas (i.e. the sky).

I really enjoy the composition and the subtle details in the sky.

Beautiful scene. 8 - if it hadn't had the halos it would have been higher.

Lovely scenery, truly! But the reflections are not all that clear, still I'm sure it will do well for you!

Nice photo and very nicely composed, great reflectons and nice light. Reds I'm sure are quite saturated in the scene but seem overdone and not needed to make this photo. I like the leading lines of the wood thing but they lead outside the frame and I think you want the attention going toward the center and reflection.

Beautiful scene, enhanced IMO by the inclusion of the bit of boardwalk that invites me into it. For my taste, colors are a little strong esp the reds as is the HDR like treatment. Voted earlier.

Gorgeous scene, but looks a bit over processed to me (the saturation is entering the neon colors range, and the sky look unnatural).
