Lupines in Yosemite - re

I posted a similar snap couple of days ago, some felt the Orton effect I had used on that one was too strong. Here's a version with a more faithful reproduction.

I'd have to say I like this one much better. What a great field of flowers and the colors are beautiful. Nice capture Kartik.

Both are nicely done, but I think I prefer this version also, Kartik. The lighting is perfect for showcasing this beautiful field of lupines.

Excellent lighting and excellent image Kartik! I also love the 16:9 aspect ratio here.

I do wonder if cropping a little lower on the horizon might make some of those little bits of blue and sky indications a little less distracting?

A lovely field of lupines here with wonderful light. I agree with Mark's suggestion, but don't loose the light on the trees!
