My thanks to the President of the Society Against Processing (SAP) for the attempt at justification.

this looks a little foreboding and dark

I do like the lower part of the photo but that heavy dramatic HDR sky is just not to my taste at all. I also find the lack of a main subject that draws my eye in this photo, it just wanders all over and finds no one spot to stop at. Don´t dislike this shot though, just don´t like it either and voted a 5.

Excellent contrast in the sky, and very crisp detail in the landscape. The cliff along the left does a great job of providing a sense of height. Great!

How dramatic! I love the diagonal of trees, and the detail in the fields beyond.

Very well composed scene...the hillside anchors and balances very well, the growth around the different pastures create strong lines to lead you through the scene, and the dark sort of ominous clouds help contain you within this massive vista. Nicely done!

This one's difficult to critique... I love the coloring and detail in everything from the ground to the sky. the eyes are almost forced to the distance on the top right of the frame, i'm sure the way most would be if we were actually standing there. Very nice work.

Excellent editing work. The image has a foreboding feel to it. I like it and I wish you luck.

Great cloud texture with the harshness of the bare trees.

Great sky and depth to this shot. I think it would have presented better if the horizon were level.
