This should have been an entry for "Wind!" For this challenge, a title in white in the upper right would make it feel more like a postcard. Love the windmills.

This would have benefitted from a more compelling mood. Morning or evening light would have brought a lot to the party here!

What a fun shot! I really wish you'd added the text though to show where it was from... that blank sky is just screaming for some cool text to finish off this postcard!

I'm not a big windmill fan ... (is that redundant?) ... but this is clever and beautiful.

What a cool photo. This would have been great for perspective contest, too!

:D This is pretty cool! What are they, lawn ornaments? I like the way you've put this together having the main (largest) windmill in the top left and leaving a little negative space in the top right third. I know that text isn't "required" for a postcard, but personally I think it adds to one. You might be getting dinged a bit for that in scoring. JMO of course. BTW, nice job on resizing this and sharpening correctly. Good luck in the challenge.

this is a great composition but i think it needs some verbage on it

This is really cool - it makes me want to see more of Spearman. There's a lot to look at, but in this case it's a good thing.

Great! Perfect point of view, good color. Wish there was Text or a border to make it look more like a postcard
