Rapeseed field

An image of a field of rapeseed flowers from a few years ago that I originally took in my "HDR" phase, which now looks a little wrong to my eye. I've reprocessed the middle frame of the the three exposures with modern Lightroom to get a more natural look. Sadly, I can't recreate the hum of the field full of industrious bees!

Update: I asked an AI to critique the image, and I'm interested in what people think of its assessment. I've documented it here: www.ipernity.com/blog/gavin.johnson/4746678?t=108320

I get you,... I have often felt that some HDR images posted onto sites looked a little 'overdone' on occasions.. particularly clouds,. with a well balanced single exposure I found excellent results can be achieved in 'Lightroom' and others,. / A very nice country scene here Gavin,..
.. and 'added to the 'Landscape' group' Thanks,.. Cheers - from Dj.

A wonderful rapeseed scene here reminding me of my own efforts on the Yorkshire coast. Many thanks for the AI link which is quite fascinating. ⭐ Very well done.

Thanks for sharing with our UK Landscape Photography Group , Herb

Your composition is spot on! Contrary to the AI's opinion I think the trees in the background add depth and the colour of the rapeseed is exactly as I remember such fields.
If I started niggling at all it would be about the (barely perceptible) slight chromatic aberration on top of the trees;-)

You did a really good job newly processing this photo!
