Thank you. I shoot with an eye to retaining the natural quality. Thank you for more than one comment.

Since your comment/attitude was pretentious... I owe you no response.

An effective depiction of the effects of wind, and sadly, litter. Love the red of the barn in the distance. As for composition, some may feel the horizon too "centered" though to cut off the sky (which isn't contributing as much to the shot as the foreground) cuts off the top of the closest pole, which may be undesirable.

IMO this could stand a bit more saturation.

Simple but highly effective in my opinion. The muted, dusty colours and lovely. It's subtle but outstanding. 9.

Oh, you can feel the wind whistling in this one. Very nice composition. And take on the Challenge.
