Not burned literally, but this is the same shot as this, but with a bit of experimentation with the dodge / burn tool in photoshop. I'm not sure if I like the results, but I'm short of stuff to post at the moment!
Constructive criticism (or just downright criticism!) is welcome and appreciated for all my shots!
Due to the fact that I'll be working on site in Scotland for the forseeable future, I probably won't be able to respond to comments straight away, but will try my best, and will definitely get back to you eventually!
As always, feedback and constructive criticism will be greatly appreciated!

I love the earthy colors and textures, Dave. Reminds me of your twiggy series which I thought was great.

The effect is good. The problem with dodge/burn is you never know when to stop until its too late, you got in spot on.

I definitely like this picture for the colors tone and composition. A beautiful atmosphere. Thus if I compare with the previous version I think I prefer the previous one with little less contrast. Maybe the bark are too dark. Nevertheless if you did not mentioned the previous one, I would have found this one just terrific!

@Steven: Thanks Steven
The richer colours in this one are far better but I really like the water better in the previous post. There's some weird pixelation-like thing happening in the lower left corner and bottom. Now having said that... if I hadn't seen the other first... I'd say this one was FABulous.

@amy: Thanks for the feedback Amy
Nice colors but I think if use fast exposure and frozen the water in this situation was better, because long exposure doesn't work if water is not in contrasts with below of it. For example in you 3thrd post after this one, named "Wild Horses", there is a contrast in water that made the water "Wild" as you named, and its good for low speed exposure. But here water is shallow and also not have a special light contrast that show the water.
