I started off with separating the trees from the water by copying the picture and erasing the top half. I then saturated the trees to a nice hue of green so that it was still realistic. I then saturated the water section with it's original colours which I thought were quite nice. The red tones make it seem all the more Australian. To finish the photo I cropped the top and bottom (especially the spindly tree branch in the water. Finally I lightly sharpened the whole thing and tadaa! A beautiful picture.
I just noticed when looking at the edited version some cloud looking shapes in the water close to the trees. I wonder if they are clouds? But it has given me a good idea. I'll add a layer of clouds to the water with a high transparency. Now where did I put that picture of clouds...
