In my view you've gone a bit too far with the Post Processing. The greens look a bit unnatural.

Also, the sky is blown out and therefore carries no interest, and the contrast is a bit flat on the trees.

I'd suggest either a CP filter or a soft ND grad in order to bring out sky detail.

Personally I like the dreamy foggy day look you've brought into the photo. Not sure about where this was taken but I've seen greens like that in some very rare area's. Without knowing anything technical about photography I like the picture as it looks like a painting of some place almost magical? I'd say that's my .02 but I doubt it's worth 2 cents lol

there was no sky it is all fog thus no definition in the sky!?! we have had about 7 inchs of rain in the last two weeks which nearly doubles the yearly total thus the vibrant greens, also it is a cemetary thus the almost magicial look, people are just dying to get in there so i'm told.
duncaji, and mortagge101 thank you both for commenting

I really like the dreamy feeling about this image. Very nice capture and good composition. The well adds depth to it.

Its hard to capture detail in a sky like that!! No CP or ND grad in the world will help you here. The only way to create a nice capture from that scene is actaully blowing out the sky a bit. Not always are blown out highlights a negative thing in a capture.

Agreed, fog = no sky interest. But what an GND filter will do is darken the sky down a touch and therefore help balance the exposure. So although this will not make for a nice sky, the image would in my view benefit from it's use. Just trying to help. Cheers
