This shot would have worked a lot better had you used a smaller aperture and got more in not all of the background in focus. Being that it's a landscape challenge you are taking the focus off that by having the foreground cow in focus and it really distracts from what's going on in the rest of the photo. Good luck!

For a landscape, I generally like to see a pretty deep DOF.

I think this photo would be even better with a deeper depth of field.
