good shot. Well exposed and nice colors. The tonal range between centered and the other two besides gives depth to this shot. A little more foreground and adding a subject could have improved this.

At first glance, nothing jumped out at me here. Then, once I actually looked at the shot, I really liked it. The sky is not dramatic, but there are enough clouds and tonal range to add interest. I really like center hill with bushes/trees anchored by two bare hills. Good job also on following the rule of thirds. My only suggestion would be to see if you could clone out the fences running across the hills on the left and right.

Actually my first thought was needs more foreground as well but after studying it there is alot more interest in the sky with the clouds than the foreground IMO. I really like it, it works for me. Good shot

I like the clouds very much. However, contrary to others thoughts,IMHO, the base is a little too symmetrical for my eye.

I don't know if you guys can tell, but this was two shots merged together to form the panoramic.

yea, I think it's one of the best ones that photostitch has ever done for me. (It's an application that came with my canon A60 like 4 years ago).
