This one is Also from Yorba Regional park. I am in Southern California and we really don’t have seasons so I played with colors and lighting quite a bit to make is look like Autumn. I also really like the darkness of the water in this pic. What do u think?

well it certainly looks like an autumn image to me, nicely done.
The colours are great and the contrast between the blue water and orange trees is great as they always works well together.
The water looks awesome, and my only real critique is that the horizon does not look level and is pulling my gaze to the right of the image.
