    i like it, although the clouds being very light on the left and then the no clouds dark on the right is kind of distracting. mostly the dark part.

    Nice shot AE :thumbsup: I'm going to go the opposite way from above in that I like the sky. The difference in the clouds on the left and the clouds on the right adds character and a bit of drama to what would otherwise be fairly mellow shot. I think I might play just a bit more with the tree stump to get it to pop more against the grass, just nitpicking there though. Well done

    OK, found some clouds :-) :-) plus added a tiny teeny touch to the tree stump. So here's what it looks like with more clouds:

    I like them both because of the foreground-I'd even like to see more of the bent over grass. I do think that the sky in your second image is somewhat better.

    Right away I noticed that the very strong horizon line really cuts the image in half and it sort of bothers me but I don't see how this image would work if the horizon was higher or lower because both the sky and foreground are important.

    Good use of B&W here.

    I like either sky, but I do find the strong horizon a little distracting. It's such a clear division between sky and ground that it almost feels like two images put together. Nice B&W.
