If I wasn’t chained…

Congratulations on this very well deserved ribbon. The chain is fabulous, the image is fabulous, and the title is good too. I love the DOF, the composition, the light, and the colors. I gave it a 10, and I'm so glad you won the challenge.

For some reason, I think the vignette in the sky is too much, because the the lowers corners of the image are so square. I realize it's a natural vignette, but with all the horizontal lines in this, it seems to conflict.
Now for the good part. I like the image. There is something happening here -- as Melethia says, you can see the wind. The colors are lovely too. I'm wondering if a narrow border would take care of my concern about the vignette -- leave the vignette, but bring the black from below up around the upper corners.

Nice colors, composition, and DOF. Gives it an impressionistic feel. I like the placement of the yellows and blues.

I'm not sure why, but something looks wrong with the color. Maybe too much saturation on blue and magenta.
