 Taken at Craigmillar Castle in Edinburgh, Scotland, a 15th century fortress.

My very first attempt at editting a photo in Photoshop. I think it went quite well considering. Slight adjustments with the saturation, sharpening, and levels, with a bit of burning on the castle, grass and sky.

I found this challange quite funny as I had just learned what the rule of thirds was the day before I saw it. Isn't it always that way though?

Focus seems a bit soft, and I'd bump the exposure a bit. 5

what is the strange dark strip at the top? I want to see more details in the castle also ...

the grad in the sky looks a bit artificial... I guess you were going for a moody look but really the lighting is too even in the rest of the photo. Maybe some sort of vignetting would be better, or selective burning?
