Nice shot, I dig the composition but think you can do better better workin post processing, the distinct halo around the trees and fence poles is something I would have skipped had I been in your shoes. 6 from me.

i see this as a study in shapes. I love the fence - leads my eye down to the trees which lead me up into the clouds.
