Evening on lake Hula

I'm going to assume this is an HDR image?  I say that only because it has a certain...surreal look to it which is not all bad by the way.  I would burn in the BG trees that are just above the foreground grass as this would help give the image some depth.  Some edge burning would also give some depth and it would also help direct the viewer toward the center parts of the image.  Very nicely done though, you captured terrific detail.  Congrats

Thank you again. I think that your comments are very interesting and useful. I will try to follow your advice.

the composition is excellent.    But I think there are two problems that may have resulted from manipulation:

1. dynamic range has been expanded too much.   The resulting image lacks vibrancy and contrast.   It looks like a front lit painting rather than a real photographic scene.

2.  There is a yellowish cast to the picture.  Is heightens the impression that it is a somewhat faded print or painting.
