My review:

Overall, the composition is good. I like the bridge in the near foreground and the tonality is reasonable. I am curious if any filters were used (looks like you used a CP filter).

Would be nice if you had posted the details of your shot (tried to get the EXIF info, but it's not coming up).

What software do you use for post-processing?

This image could stand a little more detail and contrast IMO.

Hey Koala cowboy
No filters were used. Just shot with the 24-105 f4 L kit lens. I use lightroom 5.

Great. The band of warmer color in the evergreens really sets it off.

Great photo, I know exactly where that is! Pitched my tent there a few times!

Great image! I would prefer something between 1 and 2.

Looking at the first one, I would probably bump the clarity/contrast slightly for the whole image. Add a tiny vibrance or saturation. use the brush and add a dose more clarity on the mountain range only. The foreground is nice as is.

Try reducing the saturation and bumping up contrast a bit. I rarely even touch my saturation slider! #2 is better, but as others have stated, something between 1 & 2.

You might consider a GRAD filter from lower left towards upper right using the creek-bank as an angle guide and finishing point (to reduce the uber-bright snow).

Still a fantastic location with TONS of potential! :)
