Took these shots while on a weekend trip to Lake Tahoe. First was taken at sunrise and second and third were sunset. These shots are JPG right out of the camera, no adjustments at all. I know that my sensor might be a bit dirty and some straighting might be needed but those are easy fixes. Still debating if I should leave them alone or toy with the RAW versions of these in Lightroom. I would love to hear back from some of you guys about any PP tips. Thanks

I love the first one, the other 2 I'm not so keen on. 3 is too far away and removed, and I think 2's only problem is that 1 is so good ;)

I agree with DaJackal's analysis. #2 doesn't have enough of a spectrum of colours for me, though.

#1 is fantastic, # is ok but nowhere near #1 and # 3 is oversaturated for my taste.

#1 is spectacular, the other two just don't do anything for me after seeing the first.

The mirror'd glass water is what really puts the "wow" in it.

I agree with all of the above about #1, but is it just me or is the horizon off?
