| The split lighting of this image is quite unsettling - a cloud? agressing burning? |

| This is a very interesting photograph, I think the vignetting on the left and probably the sky is little bit too much the rest of the photo with the hight contrast is a very fine image. |

| Hmmm a little one sided for me and think I'd have preferred this cropped to just as the dark areas became lighter and lose a fair amount of the foreground. Some dodging and burning of the sky would make this more dramatic I think. |

| Nice picture, I'm torn as to the dark side of the picture. Part of me finds it a distraction but part of me likes it, like an ominous light engulfing storm is rolling in. |

| You suggest to me an allusion to the past. Looking backwards in time. To a pr airy. To each viewer whatever that viewer is reminded of. I grew up in the outback of Australia and this bear resemblance to some of my young dreamtime. Less is often much more and in this case, the viewer can allow their mind to wander, remember, and recreate. I am learning. It is the hints, subtleties, the senses which an artist plays with. As done herein. |

| A little too dark, imo. I do like how the image moves progressively from the darkness to the light. |

| The thing about what actually is, arguable, a 'rather boring composition', is that the best of them holds a mystery. perhaps something along the lines of 'why was this shot taken?', or 'what is it I'm missing here?', or simply, 'why do I have nowhere to rest my tired eye?' whatever, this is reminiscent of some early 20th century stuff - Kertesz when still in Hungary, or Capa before the war photography; perhaps even of McCullin in Gloustershire. I like it. although the blackening of frame does feel over done and a little forced, perhaps. It might be subtler without losing any of its impact? |

Oooooooooh. . .this is awesome! I love the way the shadows on the left provide such a dramatic vignaetting. It has a haunting eerie feel -- like you want to be cozied up inside because a storm is coming. It is beautiful!

| that's some heavy vignetting going on here, but i think it brings some mystery and impact to a rather boring composition. all the contrasts and tones are great. would have liked to see more of the dark sky and less grass, so that the horizon line is not so dead centered. |
