A Little Bit of Fall Color

I suggest you see it here before you critique it. Just a suggestion :P

Looking for critique on the composition and color. I feel like it might be a bit too busy and that the saturation of the blue at the top might be distracting.

EXIF:

Camera: Canon EOS 40D
Exposure: 0.004 sec (1/250)
Aperture: f/4.5
Focal Length: 28 mm
Exposure: 0.00
ISO Speed: 100
Exposure Bias: 0 EV

its a nice shot, i like the way everything is set up. in my opinion when i look at it my eyes jump to the tractor first, then the tree, then the lady.
imagine if the whole photo was in b&w except for the leaves?

Beautiful tree against a nice active sky.
Problem here is the tractor and lady creating too busy of a scene causing the viewer to wonder which is the subject.
Simplify your composition with the tree and sky only and I think you have yourself a nice capture..

Default A Little Busy

I can't find the main point of interest.. In my opinion you are trying to include to much in the shot...
