So crisp and clear. I like it alot. I don't even mind that the building is slightly out of kilter from the horizon level. Great clouds

Yes, nice job with the cloning. I like what you did with the colors. I don't care for the border. I feel the green inner border takes away from the image. My personal taste is a 1-2 pixel white/black border and then a 15-20 pixel border of the opposite color (black/white) around that...at least for this 640px web image.

Very nice. I think you did a good job with the cloning. I find this to be a simple, yet stimulating image. A very vivid presentation, a subject with a good interest factor. The building is placed well within the composition, and it's earthy neutral, stark tones stand out well against the bold grass and sky. A minor suggestion or 2, maybe try a very slight arbitrary rotation. The building seems to have just a wee tilt, if straightened, it may increase the boldness factor of the photo. Also, I'm normally alright with borders, I even use them a lot myself, usually my thoughts are they can strengthen an image, or just be there and are ok, but in this case, I don't think the bright green in the border works well here IMO. The reason being, the image itself is so vivid and strong, I feel like the green in the border is competing with the image and robbing some attention away.

I like:
- the interesting composition
- cloud formations and texture - nice capture

I don't like:
- the colour of the grass; needs to be darker.
- the mountains; would be nice if they were cropped.

good image, I agree about the mountains. was there something in the grass? Can't tell if its oversharpened or the compression.

You cloned the left mountain side to the right you forgot to "healing brush" the water so it blends or break up the line. There's a line going straight down, so fix that and you'll have a good image.

Very nice. The colors and clouds in the sky are very compelling aswell as the textures of the barn. I do agree with mystical_princess in that the grass should be darkened a very little. I'm not sure how I feel about the hills in the background tho. If you cloned them out (which isn't all that easy IMO, but still) it would create a much more sureal quality in the image in my opinion. But all in all...a very beautiful photo, and keep up the good work:-)

Beautiful. The blue tones are magnificent and I love your use of symetry (well, the illusion of symetry, really) in your composition.

Nice and sharp. There is some noise in the sky perhaps from too much compression.

Interesting texture on the barn. The composition is ok. Colour saturation seems to be on the brink of being to much.
