Made my first trip to VT from Philly last month and stayed in the NE Kingdom. Beautiful state, great people. Got to see Lake Willoughby just past peak foliage and it was more stunning than this photo. The dark green and light gray created a much more appealing contrast than these technicolor leaves.

That being said, I can understand the urge to edit photos because they so often fall short of capturing the true beauty of the sights we see. Some things are meant to be seen and experienced in person.
