I like our foreground subject, but the fake haze stuff in the background is completely distracting to me.

it's kind of weird how the trees all of a sudden get lighter as you go back in the image..maybe too much dodging???

Great focus and details. It's clear the background has been edited, and I find it a little distracting.

Image is bit overexposed, your likely going to get dinged for the processing on that background.
