Santiago , I also like the delicate , muted approach to colour that you've adopted here --- or got stuck with . A nice call with the Palouse analogy . Perhaps a crop to just above the right hand cloud would suit ? Either way , a very pleasing and peaceful scene .
All you need is something---anything!---with a John Deere logo, and we could very easily be on the Palouse! Nicely layered diagonals...I am, however, in the camp of those who'd like a tighter crop on the sky...if it could be done without costing you any detail in the mid- and foreground, of course. Dave
Looks a lot like Palouse, perhaps fewer hills. I like the layered FG, I do agree the sky is lacking a bit and would like to see the scene illuminated by sunlight a bit too. But it's a fine take on the scene.
Lovely soft light and layers, and the Palouse comparison is most fitting.
I like the scene, as is, but I can also see a crop to just above the main body of clouds. Just another thought
Very pleasing, Santiago.

As you can see from this image this is already a crop, mostly took out the sky. But, yes, i agree with you, Mike, that some further cropping cannot hurt. It's just that it sends the crop format to square, and that I am very intimidated by square crops, perhaps the most difficult to fit good compositions inside. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, and your help for improving this image.

thanks very much, Adrian. As I wrote in my previous reply, I am rather intimidated by crops bringing the image's format to square (or almost), yet I can see the benefits of your suggestion. Thanks for that.
that's crazy beautiful! the colors are muted but very crisp! i also agree about the sky crop. there's some "blank space up there". maybe you don't have anymore of the bottom, which is why you can't crop?...
