    What needs fixing and what is making it look fake? I'd like to know so I can fix it.

    I think it needs more green myself. headscratch.gif

    But the problem is, the trees that are green were on the top at a slant, turning orange and some red. It gave a almost color cast look to it. I tried to fix it without making the orange/red on the half green trees 100% green. But if that will help, I can turn those trees green to give more seperation in the colors. ne_nau.gif

    i think it's over saturated, and those highlights lack detail, i looks like one part of an HDR composition, which wouldn't be a bad idea!

    We know what you're intending to say here but I think that you can say it in a more constructive manner, eh?

    I think the reds are just too much, personally. Maybe tone them down just a tad and it'll be a little better.
