Greetings from the CC, well this sky is beautiful, great light. The mountain in the background serves a great place for your eye to rest, after you haave been pulled towards it by the tractor lines in the field and the fence line.
My biggest criticism would be that your horizon is crooked and needs to be rotated slightly to the right. I may have cropped a tiny bit off the bottom not so much as to lose the lines but just to take the horizon line down a bit more. Overall a beautiful shot, with lovely light. Congrats on your well placed finish.

beautiful magazine or travel section shot. too distant, though, to really tie to your title.

This is one that goes the opposite direction as far as out of balance.

To me, challenges on this site are about balancing a great photo w/ the definition of the particular challenge.

This one is a great photo, very beautiful and well executed, but it seems like a bit of a stretch to call it journalism. If not for your title, I might think it would have nothing to do w/ journalism.

Are these travel trailers? I am not sure where the title fits in with the photo.

It is tilting a bit towards the left isn't it? And I would have cropped a little more at the bottom. Otherwise a very good photograph, beautiful colours and good composition.
