This was shot during my day at the May Farm, where I joined a group of herd management experts who where there to thin the deer on the farm. This was taken at the beginning of the day, before many, many miles would be spent in the woods, fields, and on the mountain. Oddly enough, it seemed to be harder walking down the mountain than climbing up.

Post: desat, slight adjustments to shadows/highlights, curves, brightness/contrast, sized, slight usm.

It certainly meets the challenge and the composition actually leads your eye to the person quite well - the bright/ burnt out high contrast sky and trees is the immediate focus, and then your eye takes the journey down the trees and along the ground, to the person.

Other than that it isn't doing a whole lot for me, but it does meet the challenge well.

he looks so very lonely. Like the use of sepia in this photo

Don't you hate the dull winter skies? A different angle -if possible- or crop which excludes the sky might have been better, in my opinion.

nice composition, but I would change the reddish tonality.

Simple tones make for a gentle scene.
