Peaceful

This is only my second photo posted on NPN but I have been admiring everyones talent here for along time. I am just starting to learn photoshop and wanted some pointers on what I should do to this image to make it better. I used a Canon 40D, 28-105mm hand held at f9 and 100th sec. I attempted to clone out some barbed wire and t-posts but I'm not to good yet. What can I do different to this to make it better. Thank you all for any suggestions.

This is in fact quite peaceful, Tony. Really lovely colors and a nice composition. The two horses add so much to this scene.

Beautiful peaceful photograph Tony. Love the simple calm feeling of the photo that lets you wander through the scene!
I anything, I might darken the highlights of the barn roof and the sky, but very nice as shown!

It's a great comp Tony, the two grazing horses bring a lot to this..
Ideally I'd have to look at it large to really comment with any accuracy.
Off-hand? I would've used tripod rather than hand-holding @ 1/100th, but that's just me :wink:
But very nice results, none-the-less :toast:
