First of all, your picture is one of only a few that really understood what was needed to capture a cinematic look. A cinematic look is not a pretty, still picture with letter-box borders, nor is it a panoramic image. But, many folks who voted didn't understand this. For this reason, I would consider your picture to have been one of the winning shots.
That said, the semi-backlit Indian on horseback is well composed against the bright sky making his image stand out nicely. The vignetting also focuses one's attention on the figure. Good PP to achieve a cinematic look!

First, the section rules have disappeared but I will offer my opinion politely anyhow.
Were the shot mine, I would not have it so contrasty. Would have reduced the hightlights and opened up the shadows to allow more details of the horse and rider to be seen. Secondly, I would leave more room at the left in the direction of movement.

Thank you very much. :) And thank you for seeing my vision. You got exactly what I was trying to portray.

Thank you for your critique. I intentionally made it contrasted like that so the Indian would be the main focus and pop against the clouds. The vignetting definitely made it dark around the horses face and body but like I said I was more interested in the Indian. Thank you again for your thoughts though.
