Very pretty shot @courtierfraz. It’s neat that the horses are in the rays of sunlight.
Like @buddingphotographer said, the editing is a little over done. Halos are noticeable. You make the gradient between the sky and trees more subtle if more of the sky was lighter and more of the tree was darker along their intersection.
Seems to me this should would look better zoomed in on the horses. But if you don’t have a zoom lens (or you can’t use your feet to “zoom in”) then perhaps using a hint of the zoom effect would help draw the eye into where the horses are.
