Excellent detail and colour. I would have liked a bit more open space on the left and perhaps a little less sky. Small criticisms for an other wise good image.

I agree with Bruce. The picture is great as it is - the colors and processing are great, but a crop towards a widescreen ratio, taking off a bit of the off-focus grass in the front, and a bit of the extra sky, would look even better.

I agree with the feedback so far. Just a little more on the left would have helped so you didn't crop the tree. I'd be tempted to shoot from closer to the ground to cut off the sky a bit.

I see what’s been said, my eyes see ... too much. I would tighten way up and concentrate on the shed and trees.

But I didn’t shoot this so I can’t say what you saw, only what I see.

Overall it’s an enjoyable image, beautiful natures scene.

The crop on the left was to cancel the tree that didn't come out whole, and I also took into account a panoramic format to crop the sky (boring) and the grass.

Thank you very much for your comments!

I prefer the uncut version. The small portion of the tree on the left hints towards the row of trees extending out into the distance.

Ditto.... I don’t know why but seems more natural

I would crop a bit of the sky, and possibly clone out the powerline tower between the trees.

I prefer to clone - to intervene as little as possible in the image, especially in terms of static elements of the landscape. I always try to integrate them into the "narrative".
This photo is taken in a very urbanized area, it is a part that preserves the rural essence in a very densely populated and industrial area. I like to have some element that reminds us of it.

Thank you very much for your comment!
