John, here is the result I had envisioned with a bit more warmth and brighter foreground.

Not necessarily better, just different. #1545524

After reviewing these together I think I added too much warmth, but feel a little would help. I do like the additional highlights though. #10851298

I do like the brighter foreground. Dale don't know if you added too much if so just a little. #10851359

Thanks Dale, I have a version similar to this. I am unsure which I like better.
The present version was close to what the light looked like. The sun hadn't quite reached the field directly in front of me. Appreciate the input. Will see about adding a little more highlights to the foreground before printing. #10851392

No matter how you treat it, John, it is an enviable image with glorious light. Thanks for sharing it and the willingness to play around with the results. #10851416

I appreciate the critique. I did use your initial info to improve on the photo. Beyond that it becomes personal preferences. Thanks for your assistance. Will let you know how it prints. Planning on printing it tomorrow evening on my inkjet. #10851449
