A Matter of Perspective: Yellow
The house is actually across the river behind the beach which this high dune separates from the inflow of a smaller creek. The yellow flowers just cried out to be the subject though, and the angle makes it an interesting shot (imho).

Just my basic added Clarity and Vibrance and Landscape sharpen, with some added Contrast as well. I used a Graduated Filter effect from the top to darken the sky, and the vignetting tool to lighten the corners of the image.
Perfect! It makes me want to go out there and take a walk into my local countryside. I love the yellow and the intensity of the sky with just enough of the buildings and trees to give you direction and the fact that it’s off centre gives it even more interest than if it were centred. Fab.
