A Farmer's Work

Wonderful light, Well composed. Nicely done.

This is very nice, Bill. I liked your vert image, but this one is even better. I really like the wider view, its getting more of everything that is so nice in this scene. The row of trees on the left are very nice in the fog. Good work.

This is as good as it gets - Excellent! the light, fog, and overall conditions are fantastic. there seems to big a pretty big dust spot in the sky (right side) - that's my only nit:)

Great Work!

Bill, I don't get a chance to comment on all your photo's but I have been noticing them and all I can say is that you've really seemed to "up your game" with your photography lately. Your images seem to be getting better and better. Not that they wern't nice before because they were but the quality and comp levels has really seem to increase, both here and wildlife.
No nits for me on this image, the lighting is great and the fog adds a wonderful element. Lowering the horizon line in the image as you have really creates a feeling of open space. Nicely done.

Thank you all, this last two posts in M&N are some of my favorites, and best I think.

And John K. I truly appreciate you noticing and making that comment. I feel like I'm making strides, largely due to the help of people like you and too many other people on NPN to mention--though I think they know who they are.

I definitely feel I have a "unique" style and approach to my photos. I'm never going to be someone that shoots super-crisp, outstandingly processed images. I don't think. And I really don't care about that. But they seem to have a certain quality that jumps out and lets people know they are mine--spiritual, not religious, is an adjective I often hear. Anyway, appreciate it as always.

Pano crop posted, just 'cause I wanted to see how it worked out.

This is really nice. I like all three of the comps you have posted thus far. Beautiful colors

Bill, that pano really works for me. that would be a real sweet canvas

Superb comp, great light, no nits (except the aforementioned dust bunny—about on the right third line, about half way up from the bottom).

Dern dust bunny!! thanks folks, I appreciate the comments, let me get rid of it, I hope!

The pano really works for me, as the hay bales are the center of attention. Fantastic light, and the fog adds a nice softness.

I love what you've captured here Bill. I have tried to photograph hay in the fields like this, but have not gotten the results you have achieved here. GREAT.

thank you Bob & Greg, I feel this one is special, no, I know this is. Thus a pano will be coming as well.

Great image Bill! I particularly like the layers repeated in the fog, out to the mountains. The pastel sky is nice too. The pano is fantastic! I may have missed it, where was this taken?

I can't decide between the two versions, they're both excellent. Maybe leaning towards the pano. I think.

Thank you Greg and Kah Kit, really appreciate it.

Greg, this photo series was taken on an exotic island in the South Pacific with rich, robust soil noted for its agricultural prowess. Well, either there or Northeast PA, can't exactly remember.

Hi Bill! This is a really nice image. I had thought to suggest a pano with it and then there it was! But I think the pano is just a tad too tight. But much prefer that to the original.

Nice work Bill - I'm especially drawn to the pano - excellent.

Congrats Bill, beautiful shot!

Congrats Bill, great image!

Thanks everyone! And Michael, as to your point about oversaturation, that's possible, but as it is pictured closely resembles how I recall it appearing. And thus my slamming on the car brakes. But thank you for noting that.

That is just a gorgeous scene!

Congrats on a lovely EP!
