Critique Club Review:

Focus, sharper is better, escpecially for silhouettes. The grass runs into the skyline of the town, which distracts a bit. Color saturation and hue are all fine.

You've already heard from the rule of thirds police. The rule can be broken, but it's best to have a reason in mind when you do.

I like the arch of the grass. I think no town, and maybe even no clouds, could have made it pop even more. (I'm thinkin a few minutes later in the evening where a timed exposure could have lightened the sky a bit, and captured a few stars, might have made for an interesting effect.)

Nice composition. This would be a really great shot with more depth.

I like the curves and the idea, but I think it could be a better shot with all the grass in focus and without the landscape.

Nice subject, but I think the framing/angle could have been done slight more interestingly. It is rather static this way. Also wish that the bottom fringe wasn't touching the treeline.
