How did you PP these? I'm seeing some pretty prominent shapening/clarity/color selection haloes on the tree trunk against the sky, and in the horizon. I do like the still look of the water and the contrast
 
I am using PS cs6. Maybe I will rework this and back off the clarity and contrast.
 
This one turned out a little better.

I actually like your signature watermark. I wish I could have something like that, but whenever I try, it looks like a child wrote it (even after I fix it in Illustrator, haha). :(
 
Reworked. Better? Worse?

Definitely seems better re: haloes ... but the second one is a bit muddy ... (I know ... this drives me nuts). I like the third one though ...

Also, remember that you can take one version of the image that has the high contrast/clarity and one without ... pull them into PS into each their own layer ... and use a mask to paint where you want each to show up. Then you can blur the mask and maybe set the opacity of the layer etc, to blend them smoothly ... I've done that with some of my images.
