Grass on the Plains

[Pierre81385]

This is from a batch of photos, which are the first I've done in "black and white." Color was reintroduced into the photo by split tone processing of the black and white original in curves.

Comments, critiques??? Somebody here always points out something I missed!

IMO it's overdone. Is the grass usually that "brilliant"? I would back off the saturation, and maybe do a touch of color burn.

yes a little over done, back off the saturation a bit.

Awww, over done it is. I really have trouble going a bit overboard with the editing. Extra bright color just pleases my eye so much, I can't tell when to stop!

Thanks for the critiques!!! :)

Nice edit. I'm always worried about editing out too much and ending up with an artificially simple photo. I was thinking maybe the photo would be better with a more even lighter background... Thanks for your point of view!
