The reason: My eye was attracted by the specular highlights from the
interaction of the waves and the grass. So I took a number of varying
exposures to try and capture them.
The result: Not a single image has those highlights, nor do they seem
to be recoverable by any manipulation in the Raw converter or Photoshop.
Still this image has a bit of interest. Well I like it anyway.

Equipment: Pentax *ist-Ds/smc Pentax F 70-210mm f3.8-5.6
Additional Bonus Rant: This image also shows the hazards of resizing
for the web. The Pentax F 70-210 is very sharp and captures more detail
than the 6mp sensor in the *ist-D[x] cameras can record, yet in the web
photo everything looks a bit blurred. True there was a bit of wind
moving the grass, but some was stationary and very sharp in the full
size image, here none of it is.
As usual comments are welcome but may be totally ignored.
