Great capture and processing. I would crop some of the grass to create a larger proportion to the sky. Now it looks like a 50-50. My eye goes back and forth like a ping pong ball.

Thank you for your comment and suggestion, PixelStan. Much appreciated. I did crop a bit from the bottom and left side already and was reluctant to do much more. But, I will try another small crop from the bottom and have a look.

Thanks for the thumb and comment, Longshadow. Wyeth, as in the artist? If so, I very much appreciate the comparison, even if it is just a slight resemblance.

Okay PixelStan and Toment. As you each have suggested, here is a second crop. Any better?

Yes, I do prefer this cropped version. Thanks for the suggestion (which was seconded by Toment), and I'm very pleased that I followed your advice.

My pleasure. I other thing you may want to consider. It is called the rule of thirds. Your composition (The Barn) would be greatly improved by moving it from dead center to the right. Doing that would make it an award winning image.
PS I am a judge for the Chicago Area camera club competitions.

Well, thanks again, PixelStan. Here is a crop with the barn moved to the right a bit (hopefully enough). What do you think?
BTW, I am grateful for the tips.

MORE MORE Divide the image into thirds.Right now the barn sits in the middle. it sits in the middle.Visually that is not a visually comfortable place for a subject for many reasons.

Also the bush or whatever on the left is bigger than the primary subject yhe barn.1/2 of it needs to be cropped out. Suggestions are to make your image perfect from a visual standing landscape.
