Photographer’s Note

Typical agricultural land, waiting for springtime I suppose, pretty colours in a low winter sun.

Hi Dougie,
Wow, great shot! I love that you included so much of the sky, with the brilliant shades of blue and the wispy clouds. The foreground is also very interesting...the landscape really is waiting for springtime it seems with the sticks reaching towards the sunlight. The brightness and colours almost make me forget that it is a winter shot. Thanks for sharing!

Yes, very nice. I like the strong foreground and vast blue sky. You should go back in spring and photograph the crops!

Very nice shot! I like the minimalism of this, which allows us to concentrate on the textures and colours. I think this works really well as a square crop, but the vertical composition is good too. Excellent work!

Hello Dougie, I like the POV you chose for this shot. Also beautiful those clouds: seems like they drive our eyes to the sky that goes to almost black.
Well done!

Hello, Dougie.

This is superb!

As is your usual, the colours ad exposure are spot-on and the whole picture is as sharp as a pin.

Great simplicity of composition which makes the picture stunning. And very subtle use not only of a polarising filter but also of (I presume) an "upside-down" graduated filter.

Excellent!

Best Wishes,

John.

Hi Dougie,
What an excellent shot here, the minimal feel you've captured is spot on. Foreground is eyecatching plus the gradual change of blue in the sky just tops it off. Great shot Dougie!

Hi Dougie!
Great composition with this dark blue sky at the top, the ethereal clouds at the bottom, and those yellow stubs expanding to the horizon over the snow-covered field!
Excellent capture!
Best wishes!
Marie Louise.

I like the perspective to infinity of this field. Fine sharp details, great light - well done minimalistic impression.
