Great effect here especially with the 'normalising' of the tractor and sky to contrast. Well done Paul ~ Regards Bob

Looks like a painting for sure. Very good.

With all that work, I don't know how you could possibly say you are suffering from a loss of creativity! You did great! Get out there and shoot! You'll feel better soon. ~Sharon

From raw I pushed the saturation about as far as I could go. In Photoshop I blended and masked 2 exposures so I could make the sky at least somewhat blue since it was a bright hazy day. I added the "water paper" filter and then masked out the tractor and grain cart to give it the exact look you describe. Lately I am really fighting a loss of creativity. Paul A.

This is really delightful, Paul. How did you make the crop look like an oil painting and yet the tractor is so sharp? The colors are bold and bright. Very nice! ~Sharon

This does have a lot of the colors....a good experiment gone well. Traveller
