The flash in the foreground and the warm sunset in the background are a little too contrasty just in their natures. The foreground distracts from the horizon and sunset

I love this photograph. The sun and clouds balance perfectly with the tall grass on the other side. It would have made it better if you didn't use a flash or whatever you did. It makes the flowers stand out too much because the light on them doesn't match that of the sun.

Unique lighting for the foreground because it appears to be a bit unnatural given the mood of the rest of the photo. I am wondering if lower angle with lowest flash setting (or none at all) would have created greater "eye candy." Might even try same shot about two feet forward just past the flowers.
At any rate Great Sunset with just enough cloud cover to create halos! Sweet! :)

I'm not sure if the subject is the flowers or the sunset... I think the flowers and grass are distracting - the sunset is beautiful!
