It's a nice shot but doesn't do much to move me in one direction or another, but in the current direction I'm going, I certianly appreciate it for the line, pattern and angle of presentation.

Pretty colors. I wonder if moving closer to the rocks and heather a bit to the left of center, with a wider angle (or more stitching?) and a somewhat more exaggerated downward angle on the lens would lend a little more drama or depth. I would be looking for a subtle effect so that the beautiful hill in the bkg is not lost. FWIW.

A satisfying composition with the the masses of cloud, land and furze converging on the right.

I'm with Chris and David. It has nice elements but doesn't really come together for me as a satisfying whole.
I think a longer shot with a tele, concentrating on the distant hills plus some sky might work better.

Fair points, all. Thanks.
