I might be tempted to crop a bit off the bottom and give it a more panoramic feel.

Not much ... Just a little.

I agree with Jeremy P.  (Hard to be clear when there are two with the same name),

I'd also be tempted to shave a whisker of the sky also.

Don't crop it, Jeremy. It needs the weight of the foreground.

I like the foreground, but would prefer to crop most of that bald blue sky out. I don't feel it adds anything except to pull the eye away from the subtle layers in the lower portion of the frame.

I agree with Jeff.  The foreground is fine, I would take off most of the sky.

The foreground to me is much more interesting than the back ground. However, I think they need each other, and wouldn't survive as a keepers on their own in this form. Not that they are bad at all, but they need eachother. Still, there is something about this picture that doesn't draw me in entirely...
