Hello Gregory.
The repetitive subjects making a diagonal on the picture, has given it a very good composition. Colors are wonderfull and the polarising filter has given the clouds a lot of volume. All it makes a very nice and beautifull picture. Congratulations for this shot.
Angel.

Hello Gregory,
Nice angle showing a lot of clouds. The green grass makes a nice foreground against the neat line of hay & barn. Regards. Latiff.

This is a great image. I aspire to get the shots like you. the clouds are picture perfect yet the green in the grass is crisp as bright. The hay has wonderful pattern and rich contrasting color as well. The barn at the end is a great tie in. It almost doesn't look real it is so well done. Amazing!

Hi Gregory,
Wonderful shot! The lighting here is good allowing for great colors, and the very dramatic sky is nice. I like your composition, the hay flows across nicely. Well done, thanks for sharing!

Gregory,
I really like the colors and composition of this shot. It makes me anxious for those later summer months when the hay bales start showing up.

Really great shot, Gregory. Huge sky and low viewpoint make this very dramatic. Great angled shot of the hay bales leading to the house at the extreme left bottom corner make this a marvellous image. Lovely light and good sharpness and detail in this deceptively simple shot.
Regards,
Andrew

well gregory, it for me an honour, as an amateur photographer, to visit such a good sport photograper. yes I had a look into your archive and I must say your a profi, and thats a compliment from me to you. Now you are by landscape photography, and in that thing I am a painter. This one is very good, the angel you shoot, the low horizon the house in the left corner and the fantastic sky and the good lines. one little minnor is the piece of tree just above the house, it's easy to clear that with a tool, farther a fantastic photojob,
Have a nice day.

Hi Greg,
You know what this looks like...yes, a pure Fuji Velvia 50 film. Man this sky is incredable deep blue and look at the grass...Velvia green...can't be better.
Composition is straight on, and enormous depth thanks to the rowls of hay and the house at the end.
Wonderful composed...great shot..!!!
Regards, Henk

this thumbnail stuck out a lot and drew my attention immediately. the cloud patterns and the colours work really well and the rural feel is well presented i think. there's a lot to look at which is what i look for in a photo. a simple composition that offers a lot to the viewer. well done!

Really great photo, very original with the rolls of hay. You have composed this perfectly with the rolls leading to the old barn. The colours are great with the green, brown and blue. Very, very interesting photo of a common sight/
