Wonderful capture, the shot has a real... depth to it, feel as though I'm there!

A stunning farming shot lots of movement from the tracter and the birds, you can almost feel the wind as they go by, beautiful in sepia too!

Love the sepia here John, works well, im sure ive seen this before. Superb. V

Di, Bob, Karen - this felt like a 'lame' PAD when I took it. Tractors and Seagulls are barely worth a second look around here. So I have been surprised with the favourable response to this one.
The PP was like this:
Mode-Grayscale
Mode-Duotone with Yellow 138
Layer Adjustment - Curves
Gradient to bring out the clouds
Sharpen
(I was too lazy to take out the lines due to work pressure.)
Thanks for your interest

Great treatment, John. I love all the birds following on hoping to find something worthwhile.

Wonderful color. I love the birds looking for insects behind the tractor. Looks like a storm is approaching, hurry home.

The scavenging birds really make this shot, John. V.
Guest 17-Feb-2006 23:16

Great capture - the tones work well.
Della Huff17-Feb-2006 22:07
Great tones - and I love the sky!
David Clunas17-Feb-2006 22:04
Like the tone, those clouds look a bit menacing.
Guest 17-Feb-2006 19:40
LOL
I'm colorblind and thought I was seeing color.
I thought I was cured!

Ed - The tractor would have been green and yellow if it wasn't February B&W PAD ;-)
Guest 17-Feb-2006 18:00
Great action shot John. Hope the pbase meet goes well

This is a scene that could have been taken in western NY except for 2 things
1. No one is plowing yet
2. Most tractors here are green and yellow

A great shot. Love the tone and composition.

This could pass for south Louisiana, the egrets following the tractors.
