The colors and contrast seem slightly over done. Especially at the horizon level on the right side.

Trying to get the exposure right with a setting sun can sometimes be challenging. Since most of this photo is in silhouette already you may have been better suited to wait another 3 or 4 minutes to let that sun hotspot sink down a little farther. JMO of course. Now please don't take this the wrong way, but isn't there a viewpoint someplace that would be a little more dramatic and representative of 'Kansas'? A postcard should make you want to learn more about what it represents IMO. This looks like the backyard of many a subdivision home anywhere in the world. Anyway, I wish you the best of luck in the challenge.

oversturated and noisy, green area in the sky distracts. Font color is not the best choice, had taken orange or white.
