Ron,

I really like the light here and the play of form and shadows on the landscape. I also like that the sun is not directly in the frame, yet the rays of light add a nice touch to the scene.

I noticed the fence posts right away but was going to leave this here because it was fairly minimal, but then I noticed the house/farm, poles and other little hints of the "hand of man" and so I'm going to go ahead and move this to Man & Nature. Hope you understand. If you have any questions, feel free to contact myself or one of the other moderators.

And on a side note, I would encourage you to leave comments on other folks images as well. We all appreciate the comments and constructive feedback. You are also more likely to get more of a response from other folks as well. Thanks!

Lon

I really like this - the back light, the vast scope of the image with the fence lines, etc. Great image!
