I'm liking this photo a lot. It has highlights where they need to be and the simple tones and lighting are excellent.

Very good! A spot of glare as other comment mentioned, but better exposure than I could manage, self-portrait or not. Overall impression: I'd hire you!

This made my top10 list of pics. As I was looking I had a feeling the colors were intended to be be shown as such, and I liked it. It's not over the top. Reminds me of those velvia shots. Composition wise, it also strikes a nice balance. If some monitors are set to a too high contrast setting it might look oversatured there? with those folks who voted a 4 ;)

Thanks Mae and everyone else for your comments. I intended the colors to be over the top and I was going for a heavy contrast but probably went a little overboard! I tried an alternate warm toned BW conversion but couldn't get anything that looked good.

Oh, and I did emphasize the dark patterns in the field with a little local dodge/burn :)
