The Sunflower

For that particular style, it looks great, I like the composition and the colours. Personally, i don't really like this style too much, but that doesn't mean it isn't good
The PP does make it look much like a painting, and if that was your goal, you've succeeded brilliantly.

Thank You!

I also don't really prefer the style, but if it's yours, love it! On that note however, maybe try making it more tonally contrasting so that you get a little more dimension, but that would just be my take on it. Just remember no matter in which way some gives you a "suggestion" it's still just a suggestion. Take it or leave it, they're just opinions. Use them to make your work your own!

Thanks, it does seem that way to me that there are alot of people telling me that my way is almost wrong or over done but its my way, I'm glad you see it for my style and gave me a suggestion to better it, and not the "This is how I would have done it" reply, Thanks! I am going to try and tone it down but thats hard for me when I love the extremes so much

If you love the extremes, then by all means take your work to them. Don't try to tone it down simply because other people prefer it.

I usually do not like HDR especially when very strong but in this picture it really works. I agree that you should do work that makes you happy. Some will like it and some will not it is no big deal but it is important that it is going the direction that you want.
