Greetings from the critique club

First Impression:
Composition is busy, uncomfortable tilt in the horizon.

Relevance to the challenge:
I see you were trying to contrast the yellow flowers to the blue sky, which is a good idea. It might have helped to boost the yellow saturation to make it stand out more

Composition:
You could've got a nice yellow-blue contrast with a much tighter crop. The trees behind the flowers dont seem to add much to the photograph.

Camera work:
The depth of field appears too deep. A smaller aperture would have been sufficient.

Processing:
The colors are a bit on the dull side. Boosting the saturation woul've helped.

Good luck in future challenges!

There is contrast between your sky and flowers, but for me, the bottom third of your photo is very, very similar in tonal range.

I don't really see too much dark in the photo for the contrast. There is a spot on the left side of the photo in the sky that I would've cloned out. Other than that, there is nothing that makes anything stand out and draw attention. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to really be looking at in the photo. No main subject.

Nice against the blue sky
