Default Country side

Just a photo I took at a country side.

I'm really new to this. Photo was taken using Canon IXUS 500, with post modification of changing level and increase saturation.

Any suggestions please.

Thanks,
Jimmy

pasoviennese, Welcome

This reminds me of the printing style in old magazines, when color was still new technology. There are some good compositional choices, having bulk of trees offcenter, road at an angle. A little of the foreground could be cropped to bring horizon into favorable third. Pushing the contrast or oversharpening may have given that yellow cast to sky that isn't natural, but it does fit if you intended an aged look.

I love the colors! I'd also suggest cropping some of the foreground, the beauty of the sky would be more intense then. Maybe I'd only like to see more of the road in the distance. Have some more beautiful country side pictures?

I like it. It has that old artistic vibe around it.
