I like this. Good idea for the challenge and done well too. I like the way you got the little cloud to act like a heavenly body.

Softer lighting later in the day would have made a more pleasing image. More clouds in the sky would have helped too, but I know you can't control those things. Great photo though!

Great shot of a famous subject. Could ise a bit of sharpening and perhaps a bit more saturation for the blue sky. Still, great composition.

Nicely done, but I wish it were a little less zoomed (perhaps you didn't want the rope barrier in it), a little less centered, and a little less exposed. 6

Lovely site with a lot of potential. But if only you captured the essence of Stonehenge with some sort of close up. Perhaps earlier in the morning or later in the day would have helped you with the sky colouring.

I would love to visit Stonehenge. Sky is washed out, though, detracting from the photo. Perhaps if you had shot at a different angle with your back to the sun.
