Thanks for the votes and comments.
some people mentioned the sky... this is what it looks like constantly in the UK. It's cloudy.
Perhaps I could have been a little less extreme with the contrast though...
The colors and contrast here make the image look almost surreal, like a storybook page or an album cover. It has an interesting style that displays a different kind of "crazier" strength.
I like the use of high contrast in this image...although I suspect that you may get some criticism for it...especially the sky..most voters seem to hate lack of detail.
Knowing the British weather..I`m aware that on some occasions, it is like this naturally..I think you have used it to your advantage to create interesting contrast between background and foreground.
Well done.
I think you changed the levels so much that it no longer appears real. I've yet to see a white sky like that especially when I'm looking at such bright flowers.
Lovely floral photo with juxtaposition of stone walls in background. The white sky makes this photo look like a studio portrait rather than a real world photo. Also, the true strength of York is not in her walls but in her great cathedral faith as witnessed by the York Minster. The Minster at night would have been a finer subject for this challenge.
Pretty shot. I like the perspective. I only dislike the saturation in a few areas, looks heavy handed. Still I do like this. Good luck in the challenge. 7 from me.
IMO: the green in the lower left is too dark. I have a similar picture from several years ago - I love the scene of the yellow flowers in front of the walls.
Difficult lighting conditions, sky is overexposed and the ground is underexposed. If we could blend layers, exp. bracketing would do the trick. Maybe too much contrast done?
