Lots of very nice texture to this photo, you really feel as if you can run your hands across the screen and feel it. Great photo!

Lovely location to shoot in. My only issue is with the horizon distortion and the strong horizontal salt line so close to the edge of the frame in the bottom of the scene. Moving that backwards or forwards would have made that bottom shape less static, perhaps. Also the salt edge at the left is quite cramped into the edge of the frame - again more or less space would help with the balance of the shapes. It can also be a really strong idea to find a rhythmic shape in the clouds or hills and try to find something to play off that in the foreground. Works particularly well with such geometric and easily found shapes as presented here. (e.g., the two hills coming down to the valley in the distance and something that reflected or played off that in the salt.

If a storm is comming, you must have used a very fast shutter speed to get no motion in the long grass. Although you have good DOF you seem to have lost some sharpness. 6
