Thank you all for your encouraging words. It's doing me a world of good.
I couldn't avoid that dark patch. There were tall trees enclosing the lake and there was a small gap through which the early morning could peep in. That was the only bright spot that was overlapping with the plant. Maybe I could have cloned some spots across to the top right. But decided against it. Shankar, you're right. The clicked image was not blue... it was actually very dark - almost monochrome. But I desparately wanted blue to add some feel to the image. So pushed saturation as high as possible. The pangs of shooting in JPG made it very difficult too. From then on, bought a photo storage device and have been shooting only in RAW. Thanks all again.
