Marvellous observation and a very satisfying view of a normally ordinary scene. Sunlight is superb, pciking up the forms nicely - even in the distance.

Love the design of this and the great depth of field.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/17/2004 05:45:54 PM
Interesting aspect and depth effect. Would've wished for something 'more' in the upper portion of the frame.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/17/2004 03:55:09 PM
Great shot, fantastic depth of field (no pun intended), the lighting looks great!

How would you feel about cropping to remove the sky altogether? I know it adds contrast, just an idea.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/16/2004 10:35:57 PM
Great lines here! I love the repeating patters, texture, and subject choice. My only suggestion would be reshoot at a later/earlier time of day for better light. 9
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/16/2004 07:05:23 PM
This is one of my two favorites. The golden color and blue sky just set off the field rows. Wish I could have found a climbing hill for mine as it adds depth. Good job.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/15/2004 11:02:59 PM
WOW! This is my favorite picture in the challenge. Perfect coloring, excellent detail with incredible depth of field. The composition is just outstanding. 10

Incredible colors an a very simple yet effective composition. This should finish in the stratosphere.

I like the golden fields in this picture but the sky seem to be cut off a bit too soon.

08/12/2004 03:44:22 PM
The tones, the depth, the sheer scale of this image works very well. I've come back to it several times and can't find a single thing wrong with it. Beautiful work. 10.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/12/2004 02:57:49 PM
What a nice capture! I like that you added a little bit of sky to show that these bales are really vanishing into the horizon. Hope you do well.
