Taken with my Nikon D3000 35mm lens and edited in elements.
I used Orton from Coffee Shop on this photo. You adjust it to your liking. I really love how it brightens up the color and gives the misty type feel.  I then cropped and re-sized and sharpened for the web.
 

I am also entering the after in Faith at Simplicity Fall Photo Challenge

    There is nothing better than fall. I love the color pop you added, yet you maintained the overall feel of the picture. I can tell it was an overcast day and I love that you didn't try to take that away and make the sky or the lake all funky.

    This edit is perfect! You enhanced the colors, but it still looks completely natural! Fantastic! :-) (and I love your new profile picture of tiny guy!!) so cute! :-)
