Nice field of poppies flowers at sunset.

Wow. The grass and flowers look so great!
But on the other hand, it makes the sky look kind of dull in comparison. Maybe pushing it a bit further would make the picture more balanced?
.... Still, wow, the grass and flowers look so great!

Thank you Paul for your comment I will keep in mind next time :)

Is the horizon straight? Something appears off balance. Love the highlights on the flowers and red against the green!

Thank you Thomas, you are right, I checked it and the right side is a bit higher.

I think it is perspective of a tilted wide angle.

looks like some clipping going on in those highlights

yes, maybe

I agree, I feel like this lets it down a bit. Could you try adding a darker yellow/blue color gradient to the sky, or add some contrasty clouds?

I gave your image a 3. I think it would look better, slightly more cropped in. Cropped on the right to avoid the tall grass which looks soft and on the left to include the more cerise poppy. I think it would help the composition. I am being critical, but this is a nice looking image. I like the backlighting.

Thank you Richard, I will implement your suggestions next time.
