Nicely done. I find the shrub on the left, on the foreground, distracting.

I agree. I think that if I could clone out the bush and crop some from the bottom I will have a pretty good image. However, cloning it out may prove too difficult for my post-processing skills. Any suggestions regarding how to remove it?

I also find the shrubs distracting but I don't think that removing them is easy or even possible without spending an awful lot of time. I tried on the posted image with Photoshop with barely acceptable results.

This is my cloning attempt.

I think you did a fine job with it. This version works nicely.

The "new" version, cropped and cleaned, is an definite improvement. My eyes go to the treeline and don't get stuck on the direct foreground objects.
