I like the lower two thirds of your photo. For me, the highlights in the sky are a bit too bright, but a good wide angle shot.

Very cool image. I really like your processing here, I think it suits the image well. It has a very 'post apacolyptic' feel to it. Nice job.

Beautiful texture here. The sky is a bit blown but with this coloring, it works well.

Is that a mud flat? The sepia effect is great on the sky, but it does make the foreground look as though you could sink to your hips in it.... dramatic and effective shot.

My eye is drawn to the bright spot in the sky. A bit too much. Good idea. Just turn down the brightness.

great perspective and scene - I think the sky's a bit overexposed though

Great filter. I love the rich rusty brown tones.
