It's generally not a good idea to split the composition down the middle with the horizon.

Could use a good crop of the sky, the vingetting is pretty bad.

Everybody should take this in, while there is still farmland and open space to be had! If only the photograph had scents to go along with the image!

I like this picture a lot. Nicely done! The bottom left side of the frame feels a little crowded though.

Consider rule of thirds on the horizon, less mud & puddles would improve the picture.

I would like to see how this would be if the horizon line were raised up about an inch higher. (Either by pointing camera lower or getting down lower for the shot). As it is you've cut your shot in half. The subject of your picture is the crops whereas the sky is just a complimentary element. By showing more of the field you place higher emphasis on it and therefore make the viewer KNOW that its the subject rather than having them visually debate which is the subject: sky or field. Intellectually they know what the subject is but you have to tell their eyes what to see.

I do like the colors you captured and the sky is quite nice and does actually work well here despite what I said above. More of the puddles in the foreground would tie this with the title a bit more.

In terms of it relativity to the challenge I like it a lot. Its creative and is sort of a "salt of the earth" approach. Really great idea!

Overall, I would give this a 7.

Much more immediacy than the average landscape. Really puts you there!

This is a nice image that would've been better with the muddy forground cropped out.

Horizon is a bit tilted to the right and too centered. Puddles in the foreground could be cropped out. Nice colors
