Photo Feedback

I love this photo, but something seems off. Does it need less saturation or what? Any suggestions to improve it would be appreciated>

Much better. How did you blur the background?

Gaussian blur on a separate layer.

Did you crop a little as well?

Very little. Necessary after the rotation to level the building. Rotation was about 1.82 degrees clockwise.

Here is a similar, quick edit on the other one.

Here is another edit on the photo 'clicker' edited, I removed the blue cast from the trees, added a more autumn look to the fallen leaves, left, basicly removed some of the blue cast.

Thanks. I think I like this look better than I do with the background blurred. All the edits have been helpful and I really appreciate everybody's input.

Reg this is a nice version as well. I just wanted to ask if you applied anything to the water reflection. I think removing the blue cast definitely helped. The colors are great. Thanks Nancy for this post I find them very interesting.
