Lovely scenery! I like it very much. Really nice soft light on the gentle hills.

Mark, this is a splendid scene. I particularly like the textures. There is a sense of a leading line up the middle that takes my eye into the frame. The white grain facility at the top keeps my eye there along with the differing texture of the hills in the distance--it has a very nice feel.

I like the depth in this Mark and all the curves look terrific. You could possibly lift the saturation in this a touch.

Love the waves of green Mark. The tractor lines definitely provide a great lead in.

Very nicely done. The various shades of green coupled with the interesting textures add a lot to this scene.

Mark, a very nice photo of the Palouse. Nothing I can add to comments the others have made. As I study this image, I would be interested to see it cropped to a pano, cropped just above the farmstead buildings. Just a thought.
