Stream and Trees

Description

The yellow trees in the background really seem to me to add a lot to this image. I think the stream in the foreground would be fairly uninteresting without them.

Thanks, Marie. I did increase the saturation a bit using Photoshop Elements to make the colors a little more vivid, but the colors were already pretty good on the original slide. I've found that it's often worth playing around with the saturation and sometimes the hue even if the original image seems pretty good. I've been surprised at how much it can liven up the image.
