Nicely done. I like the placement of the horse & windmill. The three fences seem to distract from the image a bit two would have better (imho).

Nice composition. Looks a little flat, maybe a bit more sat or contrast....Maybe if it was in KY!!! :-)

Nice effort, but the composition lacks in that the windmill in the b/r is distracting to the overall subject matter.
