Great wide un-mown foreground to contrast with the further field. Invincible summer...the wild and rampant summer growth is advancing on the background scene, like an army. Am I reading too much into this? :)

Love the DOF and dark/moody color scheme. Well done!

Very nice Colleen. This could be used as a template for rule of thirds. I think what I like the most is what you did with the clouds. Good score.

really good color and compoisition. I think a brighter sky (not sure how to do it well though!) would make this seem a little more summery

imo this is another photo that lacks the wow factor. You need to make it jump out at you...it badly needs a central focus point.

Loving this! The frame is good & the photo seems kind of magical or dreamy. Very pretty, great job!

try to find some diagonal lines, or leading lines from foreground into the picture. otherwise it becomes very static like this one is. even though it is a cliche, better not to have the horizon in mid-picture

Nice tone and color. The foreground seems too busy.

Very moody tones to this scenic...the foreground anchors this photo excellently. Great photo!

Nice scene but over-processed.

Very surreal looking. I like this effect. Try it using a brown over lay set at a soft light mode.

How pretty. I love the sky and flowers. A perfect setting. Great title too. I shot photos of cows and horses today - nothing like this. Well done. 8
