Strive to Reach the Unreachable

The 'cross-pose' does not work her, the guy is too far away in order to be the subject and should not grab the attention so much (or more subtly). That's the feeling I got before I read the text. After reading it, it's not much better because the guy is already at the end of his ambitions.
I feel very cruel now, it's still a great picture.

It is a great sky, it's enhanced by your tasteful processing. Regrettably there's nothing to grab for the eye, only some lines which lead out of the picture.

It has a nice arty touch, but little things like the imperfect perspective (window frame) and unbalanced symmetry weaken it.

This is great. It's quite rare around here to see meaningful pictures, so illustrative of their title. Nice processing, you probably made the best out of your photo!

Very effective composition, I love the wide angle which shows different layers in the sky!

Not a lot of contrast, a fact which is made even worse by the grey writing. Depending on what's in front of the first line of bales, there could be a great potential for a layered landscape (blue-brown-whatever). On the other hand there's a great mood in your picture.

As the journey within is the subject, I would have gone for a vertical format and a centered composition. I feel that the message would be more intensive. From the technical side it's great.

The message is a bit complex for a motivational poster but... such a great poem! And of course the perfect image to go along, with a strong composition and great tones.
