Hi Bill, I'm inclined to agree with el gringo (who the hell is THAT! Maybe a friend of That Guy? <LOL>)
Yes, the tree or bush is obviously obscuring a boring sky and a putrid-green grass. The field of yellow should be orange, the sky darker, the foreground foreshadowed, and the depth of field minimized. In fact, you should have used a different lens, different camera, moved to Kentucky, and made a wide-angle shot of some toothells trailer park trash surrounded by rusting cars up on blocks and a three legged dog chained to a tree stump. I can see where you were headed with this, however, you should have made a right turn at Winnipeg instead of a left at the 7-11. Other than those small nits, it's perfect, and I like it ... really do.
