Nice pastoral - I wonder if the image would benefit from a closer crop on the right (just to the right edge of the sloping stand of trees). I like how you've captured the rolling slopes of the land.

I will not knock post processing because I can't do it. I like this.

I think the processing is great. The sky is so soft and the softness just seamlessly crosses over into the rest of the image. Nice job. should have definitley scored higher.

just gorgeous .... this photograph has a great feel ... love the way the sky and the landscape are broken by the group of trees ... love their squiggly, silhouetted branches .... love the slope of the land ... i also like the way it feels like late afternoon, nearly nighttime coming on ... like the end of the day .. altho i might be totally wrong!!!!!!! :)

Pretty. Nice use of naturally-occurring lines in your composition.

Love the sky and foreground horses.

It would appear you've used too much post processing on the sky, seeing as the rest of the shot appears out of focus, I can only assume the sky was added later.

Looks overprocessed, sorry.

sky is too overprocessed for my liking.. nice composition but lacks focus.

Great stand of trees. Like the softness in the sky, and I like the composition. Definitely has that pastoral feel to it.

This could have benefited from a slighty closer crop on the 2 horses.

everything appears to be very soft. perhaps this is intentional, but it didn't work for me, just made my eyes hurt trying to focus. colors and tones are very nice, though.

Lovely shot. I wished it was sharper.

lacking sharpness in the foreground.

A nice pastoral scene. The horses add a focal point and context. I think you could have USM'd the trees a tiny bit, but I realize your hesitance as they quickly oversharpen. 7
