The jet trail dominates my perception of this image. Without the jet trail and a little more curves tweaking I'd rate this a point or two higher.

Wonderful scene. It would be better without that hot white gash across the sky, but probably not much you could do about it.

Great shot. Wish I could look at this every evening.

Nice photo but the white streak in the sky seems unnatueral and takes the eye away from the focal point.

Oh, I LOVE this photo. It's the mountains and the sky that make the silhouette so amazing! I love the minimalist look of the silhouette too! Good luck!!

REally cool image. One of my fav's. I, personally, see this with alternative cropping as long and narrow without the bright part of the sky. It would be for hanging on my wall!

the recceeding hills are what makes this image although I would crop the light area up out that area to me is a distraction 9

Well composed and the blues in mountains and clouds is outstanding. You will improve this image dramatically by cloning out the bright diagona streak across the sky. Done't forget the part in the upper left corner.

gorgeous sky and hills. I might have liked fraction more ground and space to the right, as trees a bit close to the border. A tight crop on windmill and hills might have been interesting.

Nice. Would be better if the windmill was darker and larger in the photo, a different cropping and angle would work better for me. 6

I would have cloned out the jet-trail, it is unnatural and distracting. A bit more contrast and color saturattion would be nice too. Otherwise it is really nice, good shapes, layers, placment of subjects, and sharp focus.

white line in sky is distracting...I would crop off the top half of this image and also some of the left side...just focus on the mountains and silhouette.
