Yes wot a great pastoral scene, this just seems to work really well a.
Can you name them clouds Jano:-)

Ah, this looks much better now without the burned in sky Jano. Well done :-)

It's on topic Jano but I'm hoping to see more anyway. Did you really burn in the sky - I don't see it. In my limited processing vocabulary, it looks like a RAW conversion with some shadow fill in. Is that what you mean by "exposure compensation"? Or do you mean in the camera only? -tv

Thanks Doug. If I remember correctly, I exposed for the sky and then used some exposure compensation. The light was really beautiful in this partially shaded area. I'm not sure what kind of plow this is either, but will find out this w/e when we visit our friends again. jano

I was at work when I comment before. Now that I'm home on my better monitor I'm even more stunned by the color and exposure combination. This picture makes me feel like I'm standing right where you were when you shot it. -Doug

Thanks all for commenting. I will rework this photograph as I was in a hurry last nite to post. BTW - There is a triangle formed in the lower right hand corner by the edges of the plow. I think if we get technical there are some triangles touching the frame formed by the branches. If it is not on topic, I have several more subjects I can contribute. jano

Lovely scene. The colors are perfect and natural. I can never get such a great looking sky as mine are always hazy looking. This appeals to me in many ways so hopefully Tommy will find it on topic even without a triangle touching the frame. -Doug

Nice light through the trees and what pretty colors! Penny Street

Hey Jano, I didn't notice this last night at home (unless you changed this since?) but now that I see it on my monitor at work It looks like maybe the sky was burned in between the trees. It is quite obvious with the blue sky being brighter and less gray around the trees. I would consider not burning the sky or maybe just the shadows and not any midtones.

Very nicely seen and I can't make what kind of plow this is for. Interesting.

Nice light and beautiful color and detail Jano. Pretty view, almost looks like one of those backdrops they used in old movies.
