"WOW" I am just so pleased for you, as I knew this was a great shot..... You richly deserve this, as it is a magic image..... I am adding it to "my favorites" where it belongs.....It also brings back many memories of my home.....so "Thank You".
Gorgeous scene and great colors. A little less of the sky on top would be nice because I don't think the color of that part of the sky adds anything and it seems to overpower the warm golden tones below.
A wonderful expanse of sky... the lense glare on the left could have been edited out pretty easily, a bit of a distraction to me. The colors are wonderful. Well done. Bumping up, one of the best images in the challenge.
This is what I call "country life" at it best.....I could wake up to this each and every morning.....A magical site, and deserves the"WOW" factor from me.....
