A nice photo to work on, Ucmorlale. I like the sensuous curves of the landscape and the palette is quite nice. I see Hugo's point. I think there are four things that you might do to enhance the photo:
1. Alter the shading so that the greens of the hill show a bit more, 2. crop the photo so that there are approximately equal amounts of sky and and land, 3. crop the left side so that the foreground vegetation makes a better frame, and 4. alter the road on the right so that it doesn't draw attention to itself and away from your fine landscape.
I've attached a rough illustration of my point.

color bands and its degradation was the first reason for me to stop the car in the middle of the road and taking this picture. I agree with you that it would be fantastic if I could be more closer to the grass and taking this picture with an other angle.Thanks for your interest and comments much appreciated.

Dear Ucmorlale
I ike the bands of colour. What could have helped was a different angle. Your picture has a tourist instant camera feel, so next time, move a bit lower as to create dramatic skies with interesting textures in the foreground. If in this case you sat down behind the graas on the right and shot with some of the grass closer to you, the depth of the valley would increase dramatically. Enjoy.
Karl

I agree with you (two comments)regarding ''middle area'', normally this area covered by the trees with degraded green colors...and those trees are used as separetor between land also...(as you say dark band) but may be it's invisible (because of the darkness) for/with some ordinary monitors.
It would be better for me to make or take little bit clearly...
Thanks for your helpfull comments.
regards.

I agree with the other comment...and also, I'm not sure if it's my monitor or not, but the dark band in the middle seems too dark. With some careful photoshop dodging and burning
(see my comment on this image: http://www.usefilm.com/Image.asp?ID=904251 ) you could bring out the details there and give this an even more lush feeling, because I think the details are there but they just need to be brought out. And remember, dodging and burning is something that can be done in the dark room, so it's not cheating to do it in photoshop! :-D
Cheers,
Marc

Hi Ucmorlale, Nice lush feel about this photo, with the patch of sun on the hill in front as an additional treat. it does add a lot to the composition. It has some very nice elements in it, and it's well captured. However, I do think the image lacks the finishing touch; something to really grab and hold the viewers' attention. My eye keeps wandering from left to right, without finding something to get a foothold on, if you know what I mean.
Cheers,
Hugo
