I like this pastoral scene, Mark. The rolling hills and very pleasing light evoke a peaceful feeling. The foreground greens on the right could be toned down a little, in my opinion, but still a very appealing image. Chet

This is a nice scene, Mark. I agree with Chet that the greens are too saturated, and the cyans could be dialed back, too. I like the soft light and the texture of the hills.

Hi Mark - Gorgeous light and landscape but this screams hand of man all over it.... cultivated field. After if comment, I am going to move this to M&N gallery. Hope you don't mind. Let me or one of the other gallery moderators know if you have a problem with this.
