@Mr.Quebec, I went ahead and moved this topic to the “Composition” forum because your request is more about composition than it is on general critique. I’m still in the process of determining what forums to include and keep, so perhaps one of these days it may be moved back. 🙂
What would you say is your subject? To me, I liked the idea of overlap, dark foreground, more neutral middle ground and light background hills bathed in sunlight. That pulls my eye into the scene. But I may have tried going vertical, including less of the sky depending on what were the details in the clouds and using a distinct element in the foreground for the eye to anchor on. Perhaps the trees on the left? There’s some nice contrast there.
I tried to find an example of my own, but every situation is different. Overlooks like this are really hard to photograph, regardless of how beautiful the scene is.
And overall, there really does need to be more detail in the image to really make it work, regardless of composition.
