A couple of old photos taken while the Amtrak was stopped - somewhere in Colorado, I think?
(And yes, I like that the vertical leans!)

This female has arrived at Hamerton. This place rescues animals from all over the world, mainly endangered species, and they breed when they can.

I've photographed Ady a few times now. We get better each time as a team. This image was a fave from our latest session. I hope you like it to.

The horizon seems off to me but maybe it's the angle of the hill?
I think theres too much dead area in the photo, specifically foreground and sky. A quick recrop would do really well on top of adjusting the horizon. I did a little crop without rotating it to give you an example of what I'm talking about for my personal taste. It's still a bit softer than I'd want and more haze than I'd prefer as well. To me this gives a little more direction to the photo rather than a wide shot on the road. Just an idea!
I agree with Alex re: mid ground doing little for the shot. I think it also need a crop top and bottom to bring the viewer into the image more. For what its worth I did a quick hack job illustrating what I'm talking about.
Many Thanks for the feedback, Alex, and David!
I kind of agree with you. Not sure, if I agree with a lot of dead areas, but I can definitely crop the image to bring the viewer more into the image.
I gave a lot of thought about the horizon during post, but it's a little subtle. There was no specific horizon, and it was just the hills.
I like the 4:3 crop factor for my landscape shots, rather than a square or a wide panoramic style.
Below is the cropped image, that I thought would look better than the original one.
