Beautiful composition, beautiful sky, and interesting landscape! The only thing I would change is the tone of the foreground so the sky doesn't overpower it. Good luck!

The landscape is intriguing.
The green hills beneath the cloudy sky look comely.
Your photo is well focused and exposed and has impressive depth. I enjoy the realism of color and light and the refinement of detail. The landscape is well composed and framed. The composition is balanced.
I guess a Dale is a ditch or perhaps a dry creek.

    I do very much appreciate your kind and detailed review. Glad you enjoyed it! Dale is a word for a valley, usually in Northern England.

Wow! Nice image posted into the competition here! Amazing depth, especially with those clouds. Great colour variations on land and in the sky. The composition is nicely balanced. An emotional piece. Thanks for sharing and best of luck in contest

So this was done in England. You did a great job in capturing the whole of the scene--all the layers--and the clouds in the sky were spectacular that day too.

an excellent composition and capture of this dale; I like the green covered hills; I am not a fan of increased contrast: especially the sky doesn't look natural;

Very nice bright scene , it appears to be such a peaceful place, I especially like the detail you bring out in the sky.
It's a perfect angle of shot, well focused, this image is clear, exposure is correct, colors and tones appear natural.
Well composed and presented!

Good mixture of landscape and sky with both colors full on,i might though try to reduce the color in this as it comes across as quite strong,but still like it..Brian

A beautiful scene that unmarred by human hands. The composition is attractive and the colors are great Good depth of field to keep it all in such sharp focus.
Best of luck in the contest.
