morning haze over a farm field

I got the look I was going for but on the social media it gained no traction. Sometimes it seems what I like is very different from popular demand. Anyway here is my Image of the field in the hazy morning light. Any C&C to improve it is very wlecomed.

I like the the mood of the backlit wheat but the sunlight is pretty overwhelming in the upper third of the frame. This capture makes a good case for a ND graduated filter or multiple shots with separate exposures for the field and the sky.

Oh man! I love it Joe! Backlit golden wheat is so awesome.

One suggestion I have after looking at this a bit, is I would crop a bit off the top. If you see where the sun is at next to the tree and it's kind of burned a half circle into the edge of the tree? Crop right below that. I think the degree of brightness below it is still so strong it gives a visual clue as to the sun being over there so you don't actually need to see where the sun is burning through the tree.

As to why this didn't gain traction on Social Media, that's weird because I think this is a really strong image. Backlit golden wheat to me makes for a strong photo.
