Beautiful landscape! I like it as it is, and the colors appear true to life. But I think just a little mid tone compression could give the foreground a little more detail and would add some definition to the clouds as well. it might just give it a little snap. I really like the graduation of light and color into the distance. The purple flowers on the right are perfectly placed and the abundance of color on the ground tells the story about the season and life in the desert. 9
(I'm glad you didn't straighten the frame to the trees).
AS I did many times the angle of the light leads to a flat photo. Try different angles and see how it works. The photo has good balance but the shot is not very interesting.
9. The range of colors and the subtle sky are great. the background being sunlit and the foreground being in the shade of the clouds also adds an element of interest here. The only negative is the horizon seems slanted.
Oh man, I wish I was down there right now! The desert is an amazing place when rains are abundant. Now all I have is your good photo to tantalize me! I like how you've framed the scene with the two cacti. The mountain is on the same level as they are, and I can't help but feel that were it higher or lower, the photo would be a bit more interesting that it already is. 8
