I rated this a two-star. I was going to give it a one-star, but I think that some thought was put into it.

The first issue I have with it is the flare just to the lower right of center, very distracting once you see it. easily removed in photoshop, maybe even lightroom.

Second, the image seems very bright. Perhaps overexposed or just too bright. A little contrast may help with that.

Third, the sandpit on the bottom left doe snot help with the story of the image and distracts from taking your eyes up the historic trail.
