These critiques are awesome, I am learning so much. This is the first one i've caught but I will catch up on the rest. Thank you for this, and you'll be receiving my image for potential critique soon.

Hi thanks so much for working on my photo! It was great to hear what u thought and see what I should of done.
I agree with Johan these are awesome! Thank you for putting these together. I added this to the forum as well, but I hope you and Natasha don't mind that I took a shot at processing this image as well. I really like Natasha's version, and I like the depth of the clouds on David's. I thought I would kill two birds with one stone in my learning process and play with LAB mode to see if I could get some of the color it sounded like Natasha was going for. For now I put a version of my version here:
Natasha: I'm glad you enjoyed it, and you did a great job with your version so I don't think you should hate it :)
Jon: your version looks good, but I think the very bright cloud in the middle of the shot is a bit of a distraction. Other than that though, I think it works well.

I appreciated and learned from this critique as well.
Interestingly (to me) I started out at first blush thinking Natasha's shot was washed out and David's had the punch. But as David worked through his version I came to appreciated Natasha's more and more. And in the end, I really like Natasha's. It has a feeling like an antique post card. I also fully agree with her cropping of the road/farm land. Two thumbs up.
