Thanks for the votes and comments!
In some comments it is mentioned that the photo isn't suitable for a Travel Guide. I don't agree with that, because the theme was "Travel Guide" not "Holiday Guide" and the purpose of photos in a Travel Guide is to give a good impression of a travel-destination. And that's exactly what this photo does :)
I've used a wide white border because I want the white to function as a background-color. IMHO The photo looks better on a white background then on the grey DPChallenge-background. After all paper in most travel guides is white too :)

I like the composition very much. An enormous amount of space in this piccture. |

What a sky: what a view with the understatement of the ground. Just great. |

This is one of those excellent photographs that I would normally give an 8 or a 9, but it just doesn't suit the challenge that well.
I really can't see a photo like this in a travel guide, because it doesn't make me want to visit the location for a vacation. All I really see are some trees and clouds and I have those in my backyard, you know what I mean? But boy, do I ever like this photograph! |

Very impressive cloud formation and as a dominant feature of the photo. It would look more impressive if there was higher contrast in the clouds than is currently offered. The border is also a bit too thick. |

The title is perfect. Very nicely done. Reminds me a bit of Remie's Cowspace. |

Like it, but I don't think it's suitable for a travel guide... |

This is a wonderful shot (the white border is a bit too wide for my tastes) and the simplicity is its strength. That said, I don't think it fits a Travel Guide -- perhaps a title that would help me know where to go if I wanted to visit here?? |

Wow! Talk about perspective! So far, this is my favorite for the challenge! |

Simply stunning shot! I love the B&W and the choice to keep so much sky. Really makes the shot unique! |

Way too much border for my tastes. It shrinks the image for me. 6 |

Yep, a 10 from me. You make my eyes smile. :) |

great shot. for some reason i've always liked shots that defy the rule of 3rds, and contain a lot of interesting sky. |
