Yellow Road, a photo from Haute-Normandie, North

Photographer's Note

Country roads are beautiful in spring. This was before a shower coming in front, but still in the sunshine. To have nice and dense rape fields, there is only a week or two to shoot. Flowers are vanishing quickly, specially after rain.

A lovely mixture of colors and I like how the road divides them. Too bad about the tower on the left side of the picture. If you would have tried to crop it out, you would have lost some of the very important road at the bottom. Still a great photo. :-)

The big sky works wonders here (usually I prefer a bit less) because the road seems to be reaching out it as it winds through the fields. Very well captured...the colors are great. Might need a little sharpening (not much though) and you also need to remove the noise from the sky. Very nice!

Such a lovely view!
I liked "Spring Stripes" but I like this one even more. It only seems a bit too much sharpened, doesn't it?...

Great moves and space in this shot. I turned the sky to a "bleu France", half transparent, to keep the clouds on, and the road to "beige", like a track in the fields.... Try it !

Très belle composition avec cette route qui guide le regard a travers le champs de fleurs. Un éclairage très estéthique. Il manque cependant à mon humble avis un point d'attention, un sujet ou quelque chose qui capte le regard

Last year was I saw a simular sight - but I haven't got my camera with me - Thanks for taking the photo.

Its the black sky - the yellow field and green grass with sun that gives a perfect combination - which I still remember each time I pass that field.

Ciao Jean
Beau le contraste entre l'ensoleillé et colorié champ et le ciel sombre et menaçant.
