Very interesting image. I have to look at it a while to see all that is going on. Lower left corner seems a bit dark - I think a little dodging there would help.

You captured the Patch at it's best! Love the light, lines and shapes in this one.

Very dramatic with the colors and shadows-it rocks.

In my view, its all about the light and this one has captured one of those magical moments of sunlight.

Lovely scene that reminds me of English landscape photography.
