I really like this photo and the mood conveyed. Everything seems so soft, so vulnerable, so temporary. I would have cloned out the wet spot in the field foreground. The position of the sun sort of overpowers the composition, demanding too much attention. I don't really have a solution of how to deal with this. Again, the shot is good so I don't mean to be overly picky.

Here is a shot taken with less sun, by dint of me turning about 8 degrees anticlockwise after I took the first. To me this has less impact. Your thoughts would be appreciated.

The last photo has the most potential. There's a technique I use for adding the rays of the sun in a very controlled manner that would enhance this final photo. If you wouldn't mind sending a private message with your e-mail address I'll send you a video lesson on the process. It's good that you took more than one photograph and that you varied your angles.
