Vibs doesn't like the grass at the bottom of the pic. That's probably why!

Field is too dark. Grass is also, but it would be better not there at all.
Toooooooo much saturation though! You love that!

have to agree with Ian ross you use to much saturation , you need your eyes tested

It looks impressive because its unnatural, same reason wide angles or extreme telephoto generally look interesting, its because your eye wouldn't normally see things like that, or colours like that in the sky in that pic. I personally think it stops being a photo and starts becoming abstract colour and shape when you mess too much.

I don;t see it as anything more than putting filters on the lens or adjusted the saturation in the dark room. I used to be like you Ian but nowadays most pictures you see are adjusted in photoshop. I use filters on the camera and grads in photoshop but do remember that my moniters are calibrated and that it is more than likely they will look off colour wise light or dark too.
