When the clouds were good there was no sun, when the sun came out, there were no clouds...such is life.

The softness both in the lines and the tones just melts the viewer.

@GJC: Thanks! I fiddled the brightness a half dozen times to get it to view properly online, and I'm still not certain.

Lovely. I like how the light highlights the grasses and the buildings. It really is a "photo graph" i.e. light drawing.

Nice use of horizontal rule of thirds - ground, background (trees, silos), and sky.

24 Apr 2009 12:54pm

@Viewfinder: I loosely use the golden mean [near 5/8-3/8] which accidentally put the horizon line near thirds. I strive to put the subject within the frame to create a slight visual tension, in this instance the silos a little more right than the rule.

"Such is life." How true... But the sky is so smooth and clear; the light so lovely... I could feel the fresh air! Beautiful b&w, as always!

Outstanding lighting. Jerry, you keep me debating as to whether or not I should give up color.

Or maybe give up only what you have to give up.
