Technically spot on with super depth and sharpness throughout the image, the highlights on the rape and lead in lines in the field really draw the viewer in. I like the conversion and PP but personally the vignette is a touch heavy for me

Unusual post processing. Interesting.
Best wishes,

Thank you very much.

I hear what you are saying about the vignette being strong...
I wanted to pull the viewers eye thru the center of the image.. And stop them wandering to the sides.. It is a little strong i feel too

Its actually a 5 shot D.I.Y. - HDR...

Each exposure is 2 stops +/-
I aligned them as layers in Photoshop 6 and using layer masks of various opacities and layers of again varying opacities I was able to use the Nik Vivesa 2 and colour efex plugins to bring out the required part for each layers exposure.

Maybe I'm alone but I do like it as is. With the vignette. Nice capture Stewart.
