[Chairman Bill]

C&C welcome

Now THAT's landscape. Very nice, Bill. Bravo!

I agree.
Nicely processed.

I really like the atmosphere, composition, and tones in this and I love where it's headed. I do have to say, however, that there is a halo (perhaps due to a local adjustment?) around the house that I think should be tightened. Lighten the wall of the house, but not the surrounding background. I also believe the shadows seem blocked to some extent, but this can be hard to evaluate on an sRGB/JPEG down-res in my experience. Those nitpicks aside, I think it terrific. To assuage Russ' fears, I would NOT crop it

I addition to what Dave said (both pluses and minuses), I'd wish there is slightly more on the left, and slightly less on the right, so that the house is not dead centered and the leftmost white cloud has some breathing space. I realize that could have been done only at the time of exposure though, so it is just a food for thought in similar situations.

The sky's the thing.

Other than that, wonderful! I like the processing. Not a "symphony of grey" to further quote Slobodan from way back!

[Chairman Bill]

Thanks for the feedback - much appreciated

Technical nitpicking aside, it's exactly what landscape should be, and usually isn't. It's not trying to transmit knowledge; it's transmitting an experience.

Well done. I would love to see it as a print.

I put off commenting on the image till the technical deficiencies had been spotted. I like it and it is a fine image.
