I think this could use more contrast to show more detail in the clouds.

Colours look a little flat, maybe you could have increased the contrast slightly and reduced the brightness?

This is nice image, but it lucks the much needed contrast.

Not entirely sure what the negative space is supposed to bring in foreground.

As there is lots of subject and little "background" I fail to find the negative space here.

Your idea is wonderful. It is the execution that could use a tad bit of help. yOu could improve on composition by using the rule of thirds for the sun. For some reason the color does not seem right.

i think levels would help out here. the sky is a bit gray, and the hill is a dark gray. adjusting the levels to get some black in the hill and lighter sky might help.

Good eye for this sunset! A bit more contrast--darker darks, for instance, might help the image pop even more by providing darker tones to contrast the sun's lighter ones?

Nice composition, though the grain is pretty distracting. I think the negative space usage could be stronger as well.
