A beautiful image, Kobus. Yellow fields and blue sky contrast very well. I wish those white clouds on the horizon weren't there, but i will take it as it is. TFS.

Regards,
Ramesh

Nice work blending the images, Kobus. I also like the combination of yellow and blues, as well as the leading lines in the fields.

Hi Kobus, I like your image but thought I could bring out a bit more detail in the clouds on the right. I selected the sky area and applied S/H (shadows at 18).

Hi Kobus,
Nice job of blending the exposures and Dave's tweak brought out some more fine details in the clouds. Nice strong colors contrasts with nice lines and even a glimpse of the distant mountains. Some may feel the dark blue of the sky is a bit much/unreal but I happen to like a strong polarised look in most cases, as I do here but you may want to lighten it a bit for other presentations. A simple yet very effective composition and very well executed.
