" He's up there" is a nice idea into the Comfort challenge. I have to give you credit, the first challenge is always the hardest to enter.
One of the first things I have learned about the challenges is no matter how good or bad your shot, if you don't utilize the entire space limit the voters will score you down.
You have a good idea and subject. That is defiantly a fundamental piece to a good entry. If you are going to use layers like the bushes in the front and clouds in background I would make sure one is very in focus. In this piece I would leave the bushes in focus. Also in the image it does look a little grainy, possibly noise from the lighting. Shots with sunlight are hard.
Overall its a great idea, I really hope despite some of the comments you continue to enter. The more you enter the better you get.
Brown ribbon contender I'm afraid. Concept could meet the challenge well, but this is a pretty poor sky picture all in all. Also a very small image - needs to be larger.
The title really helps to explain this shot and it's connection to the challenge. I think if the picture were bigger with more rays of light and glowing color (without being overexposed) it might stand more on it's own.
