Hmmmm, did you try a portrait crop Don?
One thing I commonly associate with blue skies is freedom.
I can see how this wild oat is free

Thanks Peted and Adam.
I'll play with different crops. But I really like the cloud pattern.
Crop the right of the grass and you will be moved into portrait, lose nothing but empty blue skies and throw the stalk into the power of thirds.
Thanks Bob.

I like it, though you could of left even a little more on the left, to give more of the cloud.
