    The tree row looks great before this background!

    I do OK if there's a rat in them

    Thanks Double M

    I quite liked this shot even though there was no real point of focus, for me that was in the stormy sky. A rainbow or bolt of lightning would have been cool! I mused it had that "Big Duke Six to eagle thrust....I want that treeline bombed!"
    Look to it

    I agree that some times the entire photo is the subject. Not sure if this is one of those times though. Those clouds are really the key here. The ground is somewhat immaterial to those dark ominous clouds. Cool shot. I keep thinking rule of thirds but the more I look the more I like it just the way it is.

    Seeing as you are asking, and are so brilliant with almost all your photography, I'm happy to tell you that doesn't appeal much at all. You pretty sum it up above for me. It's a 'nice' shot but, for me, average in most ways. If it was taken by someone still learning I'd be much happier with it, but I've seen some very good landscapes from you so this one falls short.
