The barn in the background may be to colourfull, it draws the eye to it 
to much. Old unpainted barns thend to be gray weathered wood. You may 
try averaging the pigment used with 2/3 to 4/5 gray, or go totaly gray. 
The clouds make the sky look more blue, unless you intensified it. Nice 
winter sky!
