Hmm. Sorry, this looks too contrived and artificial to me. The colors are unnaturally saturated, the tonal relationships just off the mark, the sharpness is an odd combination of overdone and not quite there somehow. It doesn't affect me positively.

Nothing against your work in general, Bruce, but this kind of thing isn't to my taste at all. (I find that polarizers on sunny days with clouds in the sky create this surreal look too much, to the point that I rarely use them.)
