Hi, tiantai shannong,

Light is ok, the place looks peaceful and the sky is giving magic light to the scene; the composition is also original with just a little crop of earth and around 3/4 or 80% of sky, that´s ok. But I think a horse is always a horse and here it seems to be a spider or an ant, a light closer crop or shorter distance to the horse when shooting would  have helped to give it more starring role maintaining the big distance in the background of mountains  and sky. Other alternative would be to eliminate the composition with the horse in one side, but the photo would loose some personalty; from my opinion I prefer photos with some animal or people on them that those from lonely places. Thanks for sharing. See you. Josemi Gondra.

P.D.: Asia is Great !

Tiantai, you have a real dilemma here:  how to show the grasslands, the horse, and those wonderful clouds all in one photograph.  That's not an easy task.  I think Josemi has given some good advice.  The tops of the clouds are perfect.  To see more of the grasslands and to make the horse a stronger element, I don't see any solution other than to get closer to the horse.  I don't know if that would have even been possible, but if it had been, I think your photo would be much stronger in showing viewers like me what Inner Mongolia grasslands are all about.
