The border is too heavy - Let the photo speak for itself - It's a great photo but the border makes it feel crowded and too dark.

busy - too many things going on. Take away the jam and the knife and the cutting board. Then everything would relate to flowers and the refection in the toaster would stand out more.

Hello from the Critique Club-
I am slow and I have been holding your postcard hostage for a few days. Sorry.
I'm going to leave the lettering issue alone. Enough people commented on it and it know nothing about how to add lettering. And the other issue I have to get out of the way is a personal pet peeve: straighten the horizon. Whether or not your photo is straight and the fence is crocked, whenever you put a line that my mind interprets shoudl be level next to one picture edges, the picture will feel tilted.
Now the things I like, in no particular order. I love the colors, the muted browns look so nice together. The cattle and the ring and the fence are each a diffrent shade of brown/tan. Next I like the horns!! What a creative leading line? I like a leading line that brings the viewer back into the photograph, it helps the image to get the attention it deserves if the eyes travels back a few more times. Here the horns which are so dramatic anyways, create an interlocking pattern and link together in a wavy roller coaster circle to unite the image. I especially like how the horn in the front reaches right out to draw me in. I like the circular placement of the cows. I wish the green grass hadn't been there. I think if the dirt pit had extended right up to the fence there would have been less visual distraction and the cows would stand out better.
Great photo techinique all around, DOF, lighting. Maybe you could wake up the sleepy longhorn in front. Or maybe his bored expression makes his fate more poignant. This is a stockyard?

too many distractions - try it on a more neutral background - do you need both kinds of seed pod? Either keep more in the frame or less, like this it just looks cut off.
