Greetings from the critique club

I like the composition and the idea behind the photo. What pulls this back is the sharpening - cloud edges look unnatural, and there's visible halo around the trees.

Congratulations on your personal best. Good luck in future challenges.

IMO the sky throws the picture off as it is too overpowering

Not bad but take better care when processing something similar next time, there is some bad haloing around the treeline, especially on the right, where you darkened the sky :)

Very cool frame. This one's hard, the sky almost doesn't match the rest of the image. Colors are nice, but the clouds almost look pixelated more than the land/road.

i like the perspective and the road/ trees a great deal - but the sky is just a little TOO blue for me, making the clouds appear a little strange. 6

I love the clouds but the overall texture of this photo appear too harsh.
