 No hdr, just a combo of selective color, shadow/hightlights and curves. The glow behind the moutain is at least partly due to long exposure.

Complementary *and* rich - I like that there's such a wide swath of grass for the eye to pass across to get to the barn, there's an inviting expansiveness to this.

I really like the colors and composition. The glow behind the mountain doesn't phase me, but the fact it follows the silo's edges jars me as an editing artifact.

What a gorgeous shot - rich, warm colors - and this was a night shot? Very well done.

Very nice colors. The sun feels very organic, almost alive. It gives the photo some personal quality that is missing in landscapes. Quite hard to describe.

Forgot to put in "sun" before..

Very nice looking. Almost looks like HDR. There's a little banding showing in the sky just over the hill, but that is very difficult to get perfect in this kind of shot.

a bit over saturated and I thought tonemapping wasn't allowed anymore? still like it though.

Pretty picture but there seems to be more blue in this shot than anything else and I think you were trying to focus on the red and green

this has the effects of HDR in the sky. not sure how to correct that given the challenge limitations. cool photo.

It would have been fun if the moon was deep orange on this night, to catch the double complement of red/green and blue/orange. Great capture.

I really love this shot. Not sure how to vote with two main colors seems to be split into three. With the blue, orange/red and green. All three are competing.
