Of the 3 pictures in the challenge of similar concept, this is the one I like the best. Great dynamic range, great processing.

The idea is a bit of a cliché (there's several in this challenge alone), I like what you've done with the POV. Your palette is exceptional.

I like the dramatic sky that you've captured here. The posts and barb wire work well to bring your eye to the had. Great textures in the old wood of the posts. Well done

Nice sky. Good framing. Doesn't quite do it for me, though.

Nice composition and processing. It might be a manual hdr. Not sure if it is tonemapped, but I like it.

My favorite, by far, of the hat on the fence entries. This one is very well done and gives a feel of sadness to me in remembering the tribute to a fallen cowboy. Well done.

Nice tribute. The HDR is very effective, and not too overdone.

Like the slight desat here, gives a moodiness to the shot. 8

This is well done for the hat on a post theme. You picked a nice isolated fence with limited undergrowth. Nice job on the PP as well. Good luck.
