Nice shot although it is a tad contrasty for me.

I agree with Ken that this is too contrasty.

This isn't the best light for this scene, as Ken and Anders have already implied. One thing that might work here--in this light--is to isolate a relatively small area of the golden aspen leaves against the blue sky. It makes for a high key image, but it can work well sometimes.

The yellow and blue together are gorgeous; if given another opportunity would consider shooting in different light or perhaps reducing the contrast in an image editing program, if possible, to better see detail in the black trunks.

For this one, crop out the trunks - they are distractingly contrasty.

The yellow on blue is gorgeous. I'd keep that no matter what.
