I have tried to capture the very dramatic light as the storm clouds travelled across the landscape here in the Yorkshire Dales.
I expect the odd comment on the bit of litter to the right but cloning out wasn't possible for this basic editing challenge,and no I couldn't pick it up, the pic had to be taken over a high wall :)

Wow. Amazing colors. You can feel the foreboding. I love the shadows that creep up to the barn. The only suggestion I have is perhaps cloning out what appears to be a small white flower, near the bottom-right of the frame: I find it distracting.

Beautiful example of the rules of thirds.

Nice enough shot - good light and a featured building. Storm looks more like a rainy day to me so title is a tad melodramatic. An extra focal point would be nice though - like a farmer walking dog or shepherd and sheep.

Wonderful image. Love all the colors and lighting and the sky adds an extra feel to it. Great subject. Wish that white thing wasn't on the right side but very minor issue. Wish I could give more points.

I would've gotten in closer to the subject, maybe included more of that tree on the left, and less of the foreground and those shadows that draw the eye away. And picked up that piece of litter.

Lovely pastoral scene. The rusty brown red of the roof is a nice touch. I like the ambling sense of it. The sky is a nice contrast to the greens. I even like the long shadows in the forground. Well focused.
