A meadow just behind my house. Removed some forest near the horizon, waited for the perfect clouds to add (the image is made of 2 single photos, the meadow and the sky). in the end i decided to change the color of the green meadow to orange so it looks like an autumn wheat field, and after that i overlayed a orange to blue gradient to give it a warm and kind of dramatic look, then i pulled up the saturation and contrast. thats it..

thanks for all the comments..
i don't know what these things are its something wrapped in plastic, but its no wheat because its spring and the field actually was grass green and not that orange;)
Nice shot, great colors and contrast. I must say though that I personally think this shot would have appealed more to me taken in landscape instead of portrait, I kindof feel like I am only looking at either the left or right part of the photograph, you know what I mean?
This is interesting. What are the blocks? wheat wrapped in plastic? I like the crispness of the sky and the movement that you can see in the wheat in the immediate foreground
i love bottom 1/3 of the image - the grasses and the hills and the 'marshmallows of grain' have wonderful color and feel, i love the top 1/3 of the image and the sky - i don't like the purples and darkness on the clouds in the middle third - they almost seem too dark for the rest of the image. Brightening up that region and removing the purple cast would really make this a stunner - still, it gets a 7
Looks more like wrapped hay bales to me, but what do I know, I'm just a city girl! I like the way you have captured the expanse of prairie. The colours are good, but be careful with the highlights in the clouds as the brightest spots appear a little blown out to me. Overall nice capture.
