cool and simple, but you should have skipped your shadow ;)

the grass is too dark imo or the sky is too light... so i guess i could say uneven exposure...

Hah, was this intentional? Terribly clever!

Your title acts as an explanation for what exactly is supposed to be the "minimal" thing in the photo.Though i do like the texture of the grass and the clouds. The sky color is interesting. 4 (because I know it's just a picture you thought could squeeze into the challenge instead of one you went out and took FOR the challenge.)

There isn̢۪t really anything in this picture to keep me looking for more than a couple of seconds. Unfortunately the subject isn't very strong and I would have not noticed it without the title. For me there is no real center of interest in this photo and that is the main thing that is keeping it from being a great photo.

Though it's a pleasing photo, the strong point is not the photographer's shadow.

not minimalism

I find the shadow not strong enough to be a focal point, so not meeting the challenge. But I think the clouds do it for you instead, the formations are amazing while still a small part of the photo, my 2 cents worth, cheers and good luck

Shadow is intriguing

where is the subject? Ok I see, but I dont think that your shadow is the main point o focus in the photo. It seems to be over powered by the green grass, I think a good photo has to have a dominating subject. For this challenge it was suposed to be minimal, and I think the grass and sky are overwelming your shadow, which creates compitition,which hurts a photo,

Nice sky and grass. A bit different from the rest. Good luck in the challenge.

Hard to notice it unless I read the title. Good shot though

Minimal yes, but doesn't have the simple elegance I associate with minimalism.

I think a few steps forward would be put this shot a few grades higher for me. I think the off-angle road really detracts from an otherwise beautiful shot. The clouds are beautiful and the horizon is nice and level.

For my preferences, I think I would have cut my shadow out of this one.
