  Felt this one was more suited to the Landscape section –

  Hi Pete, nuances and details is really great but something is missing to make it exciting.

  Hi,

  I like this one, but agree re the something missing. A little more dramtic sky and it would be spot on.

  I do like it though but would clone out the pole if it was mine.

  Definitely needs a more dramatic touch. Go to work on the shading and dodging tools! And get rid of that pole.

  Thanks guys,

  I tried to darken the sky further than this but it caused funny things to happen with the bare tree on the right …

  Further messing could be justified possibly.

  It’s all a bit chaotic for me Pete.

  I think it’s partly because that chaos doesn’t balance with the simplicity of the sky. It just seems very bottom heavy. I can see what you were doing with the frame of the trees. However, I think the telephone poles and wire spoil that idea slightly.
