It is EXTREMELY unfortunate that the fence stakes so precisely align with the horizon

I like the scene. Try to move contrast and lightness.

IMO I believe your photograph meets the challenge. I donĂ¢€™t know if the b&w look is the best but I have not seen the colored version so I canĂ¢€™t say for sure. Good lighting but low contrast. Overall an average photograph and I wish you well in the challenge.

I like this a lot. I find the fense quite distracting. I would hate to loose the ground but I might try to crop out the fense. It is sort of like the ever present power lines that I usually find in my great landscapse, but of course, it's a fense.

i don't know why, but this tree looks familiar. as is, i don't see any evidence of wind...just a leaning tree. maybe if shot with a slower shutter, you would have caught some movement in the grass or clouds...
