Thank you all for your comments. Hewy, you were correct the horizon was off...a 1/4 degree rotation did the trick, what an eye! Bill, I worked with the levels adjustment and I think the image has lost that bit of overall haze. The final photo posted here is the version with the adjustments. Thanks for your suggestions! Michael

Very effective image. The colors of the flowers are vivid and the sky and ocean provide a great backdrop for them. Really nice! Harry

Michael,
I like this one a lot. Looking through the flowers to the sea is a nice affect. I like the way the sky looks a little hazy and the flowers stand out.

Lots of reds, it must have taken all day to stick them poppies in such an arrangement, cool. ~Scutellata

Michael, I think this is beautifully composed and a very pleasing scene to view... a very nice capture. On the critical side (*), I see Bill and Hewy's points. MFC

Nice compositin viewing thru the wildflowers onto the Sea and sky! Very striking photo. Looks like maybe levels adjustment is slightly off creating slight haze to it?

Beautifull arrangement of colours. I think horizon is not exaclty lined up with the frame, I would try a -1 degree rotation. Not that it really bothers me to much: it still is a very nice image... Hewy.

Vibrant flowers, sky, and sea! A beautiful combination and great composition. Nice capture, Michael. Bev

Beautiful! We've had nothing but clouds. . . Oh and the flowers are nice too. ;) This is a gorgeous scene Michael. Love the way you aligned the sea to be viewed through the flowers. Really nice. Cindy
