Colors seem flat..maybe more saturation would help

Not exactly a metropolis, but very attractive to a townie like me. The tree (in perfect focus) frames the buildings very well, and the grazing horses give the whole scene a peaceful feel.

Very beautiful ... compositionally, to me, it is very harmonious. I love the way you placed the tree in the frame with its branches spreading out diagonally. My only criticism is that I wish you waited for the horse's head to emerge ... somehow, my eyes is distracted by the incomplete horse head :-( and I don't know why I'm stressing about it.

I think this does give a very nice feel for you town. The mountain in the background is wonderful but I find the tree over powers it just a bit.

Hmmm. Not Chicago, or L.a., nor Seattle nor Miami. Could those be Cache Valley mountains?

Looks a lot like my town, too. :) Nice composition. The only thing you could maybe improve would be if you'd waited for the horse to pick up his head. He looks like a headless horse as he is.

Not bad, this picture really portrays a sense of vastness and openness. The only thing I'm not 100% fond of is that the horse & tree are more of the subject than the town. But not that I said that, my entry doesn't really focus on the town either. 7.

Washed out colours. Increase saturation or try making it B & W
