Rapeseed Field

Sorry don, again I think it is way over processed. I really like what the picture is of and the composition though, the fish eye look works well in such a field, could you post up an original?

Did you "Posterize" that image?

Credit to you for trying to make something out of not much and it does have a look to it.

Still, I think it needs an object of interest somewhere in the frame (and those road signs in the upper left don't count).

Here are my .02. I like that "abstract" feel of the photo, BUT, I do feel like it's fairly hard on the eyes to look at. Harsh would be the word that comes to mind. The composition of the photo is nice, to me, but that may be just my personal taste speaking. Maybe if you toned down the processing a bit it would be a better picture.

I agree that the image needs less processing. I would like to the front of the image with almost no (visible) processing, then see it generally increase across the image, much like it does now, but to a far lesser extent and with a sharper gradient.

Thanks guys. I used the Minolta film camera with a 28 mm lens and a .45x aux lens. It was badly over-exposed but i didnt want to waste the image so I took some liberties. The original is unacceptable.
