The saturation is fabulous and promotes the mood perfectly. I greatly enjoyed this pic.

Now this is the idea. Seems like to much sky but that did get the top of the cloud. Portrait would have been nice.

This is a very strong "Minimalism" image. My first 10 of the challenge, but I just started. Good Luck!

The main subject is isolated nicely.

Lose the border, and i think this photo was sharpenned too much, or at least it seems that way, because it is not that pleasing to the eye. Nice idea though, 5

Pity that it was in the shadow of the cloud.

I do not find this scene highly aesthetic. The image meets the challenge well. A 7.

Nice idea. Wish the shadow and light was the otherway around on the windmill. This sky would come up nicely if selective editing where allowed! Solid entry for this challange.

Minimalist, pretty, and sharp, with a nice range of colors. My only complaint is that the bright part of the grass is too bright, and the sky color is sort of hazy. A contrast boost probably would have helped some.
