Nice colors and composition. Next time try kneeling in the ditch very close to the field and get more of the beautiful yellow contrasting those beautiful stormy skies. Congrats.

Wow! I love this image ... possibly best in show. The composition with the horizon is perfect. Bright below and dark above creates wonderful dramatic tension. I would love to be there and see this. thanks for sharing.

Thunderstorms always produce such dramatic light and color, unfortunately I always seem to be at the wrong place. This is a very stunning photograph and those clouds are quite impressive. Great job!

nice contrast

The contrast between the storm clouds and the canola is good though I think could be made spectacular with an application of highlight/shadow, levels and a bit of sharpening.

It's difficult to photograph the drama in an impending storm, but you've done a beautiful job with the colors in the sky and the golden field still blissfully enjoying the remaining sunlight.

Wow! What amazing color. Love the broad shapes of color. I'm a painter and this would make a great painting.

Wonderful image! Well seen and captured. I like everything about it (especially the contrasting sky with the yellow) except for the roadway showing in the bottom left. It would be perfect (9 or 10) without it. As is it's a 7 from me. Best of luck to you in the challenge.
