This photo is pretty neat with the blanket of clouds/mist covering it. I think it really gives it an eerie untouched sense which is very cool. I think i would have maybe tried taking away about 1/3 of the extra sky... it might have improved the composition a little bit, but thats just personal preference. Since this shot isn't quite blue, but tries to be, I think it may have looked cool in black and white... or you might have tried using a polarizing filter on it to bring out more dramatic colors, but maybe you like the soft look of the light blue, thats up to you as the photographer. I like the softness of this photo, it's not sharpened which I think gives it a nice look, not every picture has to be tack sharp. I like your exposure on this picture, as well as the lighting... everything is pleasantly lit with no harsh shadows, and you can pretty much make out all the details which is very nice. I think this is a very cool landscape, that must have been fairly hard to get (and cold) you did a nice job with it. :-) good luck with your next challenges!

Wow. Interesting. Looks like a really big cotton blanket draped over the hills. The angle and framing/cropping is excelent. i love the color. subtle, but still there. The focus and clarity is nice for this shot, in my opinion. It's kind of soft, but I think it works nicely here. Very nice view, and great landscape. Good luck in the challenge.

Really nice rolling hills, and the mist looks great. I think it could do with a small sharpen filter though. 8

a great photo well done, just a little boring with no colour in it.
