The least likely 'Masters' shot to succeed I'm sure, but these little Shetland ponies looked so cold & miserable - further dwarfed and befuddled by this harsh, jumbled architecture – it just didn't seem fair.
A DPC vote-average disaster for sure.

gives the impression of a modern day take on a bucolic Turner classic painting. Atypical for these sorts of challenges, but maybe has the kernel of something interesting and worth exploring.
I think this is one case where an HDR capture could have really helped. There is so much range of light within this photo, it would impossible to get it all without blowing out the background. IMHO.
An interesting juxtaposition, but I'm not sure I dig the completely blown sky. Perhaps you were dealing with low overcast (hate that), but it lets the picture down. I do like the ponies. They add an almost surreal touch. 5
