Just the normal stuff, straighten, levels and crop. Small amount of NI, sharpen.
Drove by this place, coming from Denver, to my mom's house its about 70 miles north of where she lives. When I got home to Wichita Kansas, they had this challenge. We were planning to go back to Cimmaron by the next weekend, so drove about 500 miles round trip for this shot :-P. Hope it does OK. One thing I did like about this shot, there were no power poles and lines.

I really like this, though I think there may be too much sky. I think you were trying to get that gorgeous long cloud in the shot. A panoramic crop, or more of the ground in the scene may have worked better.
Awesome shot! I predict this will be top ten at LEAST, Probably on the front page.
Lucky with the clouds, having them continue the features through the lower third of the shot. Dead space (Blue Sky) looks great, though the detail of the farm falls on the thirds too! God that rule works every time!
Nice and sharp throughout - would look awesome in large print.
The roofs of the distant buildings are the only thing that spiol (term used lightly) the image, though I'm not deducting a point for that!
