Interesting, but a bit over the top with colour manipulation. Has a very fake feel to it, but that's just my opinion. I wonder how it would like as a high contrast B&W? Thanks for sahring.

The calm before the storm? Or a lifting storm? Vivid colors, intersting image.

A little bit too saturated for my taste but other than that, a very nice shot, you got a 7 from me. Love the composition.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Way too saturated, or appears so. Would have been a great photo if you just tweaked the saturation a bit (reducing it) - the composition and the sky is promising...

Excelllent shot. Has that WOW factor.

nice minimalism type image. lovely grass and sky but might be a tad bit too saturated. 8

In my opinion this is far too saturated to the point of looking unrealistic.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/27/2006 10:43:32 AM
great contrast of light
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Processed to the gills but...I'd bet anything its gonna be a DPC favorite across the board. Looks very cool..Good Luck!

Wow, quite vibrant! Did you bump the levels up in photoshop? Like the interaction of green and blue.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Terrific sky: well done

This is another image that has just POPPED-OUT at me, when viewing the thumb-nails for the first time..... The colors may be a little oversatureded, but for ME, thats gives it it PUNCH, its VIBRANCE and its MAGIC..... I am going to start another folder, just for my favorites in the DPC "Best of 2005" Challenge. This image will definately be one of them.....

This is beautiful but since I have experience altering my own photos i can see that the horizon area remains altered-looking (soft and too perfect in an unnatural way ... or at least appears to be altered. The colors are wonderful though and it still has a unique and intriguing feel to it. 7

Very dramatic.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/24/2006 02:54:03 AM
great contrasts, but the focus appears of to me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/23/2006 10:21:15 PM
I like the contrast between the dark sky and the sun casting light on the foreground.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/23/2006 03:50:12 PM
Very neat lighting. It is really interesting to have the sky so dark and the ground brightly lit with sunshine.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/22/2006 06:18:54 AM
dreamy look. the colors are great.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/22/2006 01:38:21 AM
saturation YIKES! I think this image would have been better off with 10-20% less saturation... (it also looks like it would make a good B/W from a channel mixer layer 50% red 50% green) - otherwise very nice...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/21/2006 08:06:13 PM
Wow, Very sharp color here. Beautiful.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Far too over-saturated for my tastes.. although it'd work fabulously as a painting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/20/2006 09:27:59 AM
Nice, love this kind of light, well done
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice shot. Maybe a bit oversaturated.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I like the forground. Good lighting. But the clouds and sky seem noisy.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/17/2006 10:41:06 PM
very vibrant colors - kinda like a Microsoft desktop theme I've seen before. ;-) I do like the shadows, the depth, and the sharpness of this image. Good job

01/17/2006 10:20:22 AM
Beautiful colors and lighting. However, a little too much sky for my taste. Regardless, well done.

Great colors.

Absolutely love the contrast of the green hills against the dark sky. Beautiful picture.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/16/2006 11:22:03 AM
great color and brightness, a real eye catcher
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/16/2006 06:33:22 AM
High colour saturation and simplicity of content work extremely well. I love the composition with the unusually low horizon. The tips of the foreground grass work well against the lower edge and the cloud/ sky detail is great.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/16/2006 05:59:38 AM
When I give a photo a 10, it is because I feel it is wonderfual all the way around. Therefore, I have no real comment other than to say I gave you a 10!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/16/2006 05:52:51 AM
Wow. Kinda went nuts with the color saturation.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/16/2006 05:51:04 AM
Nice capture.

Holy cow. This is righteous!!!! The color saturation is perfect. 9
