Great colors. I love the prominence of the front stack, but the obvious inclusion of all the others. 10.

I would use less sky , a little more top perspective for a van gogh, but you have captured the "movement" of the gold colors. Maybe a bit more monet than van gogh in some respects...

A nice exposure, but I would prefer more contrast with the shadows to add more drama. A composition that plays more to the shapes of the haystacks might strengthen this imho.

Good framing - leads the viewer into the photo.

beautiful colors. i think i might like it more if shot from an angle that had more foreground and less sky.

It really has an impressionist look and fill. Maybe a bit more of "Unsharp mask" could even increase the effect :)

6. The photo does not jump out at me. It doesn't scream..."Hey, I'm special and one of a kind". It's a stack of haystacks with some horizontal lighting. I think going out there with a ladder would have conjured up more dramatic results and angles. It's a good pic, don't get me wrong...but you're going head-to-head with fantastic shots in this competition. Couldn't you light a couple on fire? Just kidding. ;) On the positive I will say the colors are great. the contrast of orange and blue is great.

Your contrast I think is too strong and the shot is a tad too dark. Looks like you used a polarizer in low light at the wrong angle and didn't really get the benefit of the filter. Composition is not inspiring. 4
