[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took this last Sunday on an afternoon walk in the country. We were very lucky with the weather; it was a beautiful English summer's day.
We were walking from Amersham to Chalfont St Giles and back. It's a good little circular route, with plenty of chances to stop at pubs for refreshment along the way.

Great sky! I've enjoyed looking at the play of light across the fields - it ties the idea of the clouds in very well. The path leading to the boys is, of course, beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

Well composed image with many elements of late summer!
Nicely framed with a beautiful sky, the fluffy white clouds are very well reproduced...
Good colours, also telling about autumn soon to come!

With the two hikers included in your shot, this is really grand: too bad folks will miss that on the thumbnail! Excellent sky (of course), super colours, textures and dof

Hi Ben,

This shot is excellent - quality is really high with superb detail throughout.

The sky is huge and the composition is nicely balanced - I think the central horizon works well here.

Excellent stuff

Hello Ben,
I see that you like the graphical details in the nature like this little road ( is it correct in english ? ) who leads the eye to the horizon. Great composition.
Wonderful colors in the sky, thanks the pola filter.
Well done again !

Hi Ben,
A lovely scene doimnated by very pleasing blues from the sky and golden brown from the field. And the two men walking add an important visual element. A high quality image. Best wishes. Danilo

Hi Ben,
Even though this isn't your latest, I just couldn't resist commenting on this lovely sky. The shot is well framed, with the people on the path at the edge of the golden field, the path leading the eye to the stunning light and colors of the sky.

Hi Ben, I don´t know why I dind´t pay attention on this picture, I suppose my inconstancy on the past days, made me concentrate on the other two. But it`s completely gorgeous, this vivid colours, this natural scene, but what makes your picture be superb, is the inclusion of the human element who gives life to your picture.
Excellent
Miguel
Cheers ;-)

Hello Ben,

Magnifique ciel et vive le polarisant ! Cadrage soigné avec ces traces de tracteurs qui nous invitent à suivre les marcheurs.
