Looks like those bales need to be brought in soon. A sense of waiting created in this image. Well done.

This is gorgeous! The gold from the bales and the grasses makes it look like sunshine!

Beautiful landscape, great light and mood, Vote.

I like this one, Stewart - there's a somewhat 'end of the summer' feel about a field of bales left out to the mercy of the weather at this time of year...this photo captures that be-draggledness perfectly. V

Looks like rain is on it's way. I too have wanted to do a pic of these bales but they've all been taken in :(
Guest 14-Sep-2008 21:43
