Greetings from the Critique Club!
I've always loved the mystique of this site and thus recognized Stonehenge straight away, I've seen it in person for myself and the first watercolour I ever bought from my Mum was of Stonehenge. So not at all surprised to see this finished in the TT.
The light is absolutely gorgeous, full of great tones, it looks more like an African scene til you scroll down and see the distinct forms of the Henge, against a backdrop of woods which you rarely see in most images of Stonehenge.
I think the only thing that cost you points with the voters was too much sky. If you crop out the top quarter - the band of dark clouds - at the top of the image, the eye instinctively seeks a heavier/darker area to ground the image, and finds it there, in the Henge itself. As it stands I think the two compete with each other too much.
Hope this has been helpful, feel free to PM me,
