Sigh! Maybe I will get the post processing right one day :-) And just for the record, the horizon was not horizontal but, to be fair, it was somewhere between what I rendered and horizontal.

A few problems here, although the view is nice. The greens seem way too saturated. The horizon is tilted, but not enough to show you meant to do that. And the horizon's pretty close to the middle, which makes it less interesting. Finally, my eye yearns for more contrast. I bet you could get those clouds looking pretty dramatic.

this looks a bit like hdr gone wrong: too much colour, some haloing, giving an unrealistic image. Horizon looks a bit wonky.

Colours don't work. Good picture compositionally.

Lovely presentation with that oil color like look that enhances certain colors to bring out the charm! Bump.

I think the horizontal is slightly tilted to the right, but I like the colors and the DOF

The bizarre colors make for an interesting effect, but it's too unnatural for my taste. Also the glow around the tree-tops on the far right is too obvious. And the horizon looks tilted.

In postcardland, the horizons should be straight... I like the coloring though.

the greens are just slightly over saturated - not much but a little and the horizon seems a little off of level - maybe it is due to a hill on the left side?

Whoa... the colors look really out of whack on this one, I'm afraid. Looks like maybe you had adjusted the shadows and then pumped up the saturation a bit too far.

experimenting with HDR? oversaturated and somehow flat at the same time, for me...
