Nice work Silke, you managed well, shooting from shade to sunlight. I love their fence here, really nice wood work! Can't wait to see the deer! Glad you had a great day!

Hi Silke,
The picture is taken during difficult light circumstances, high contrast with harsh shaddows. Nevertheless you succed well, no OE or UE. A fine peaceful image excellent natural colours. One nit pick about the composition though; the tree on the left is cut, I prefer to see the whole tree. Nevertheless a fine posting my dear!

Silke Hi:
This is a marvelous, mid summer nature image. Love the gate to the field of corn and the detials, clarity and colors of your composition with a wonderful sky. This is a very neat farmer and one that cares about his work and you (who cares about your work) very presented it impressively.
Congratulations, very nicely done.

I like the natural look to this Silke. This is how summer in Ontario is, with shade and sun, altering with the trees and clouds. The colours are true and the composition very pleasant. Well done. Today is even more cloudy and rain threatening and I have a qualifier :(. Have a great weekend.
Warmest Regards

Hello Silke,

They are so tranquil, rural surroundings like here!
The trees... the field... the old fence, what more does it take to feel some peace in mind?
Lovely details, and the fluffy clouds are well exposed and very attractive!

Greetings,

Hi Silke,

This is a lovely landscape. I like the way you have used the two different trees to border the sky. Also the fence and gate are different from the "norm". The clarity and detail of the "corn" (I'm a city girl lol) is so sharp.

Enjoy your day off tomorrow, Lisa

Hi Silke, this is a nice scene of the cornfield. Those wooden fences are not what we are used to down under - more like barbed wire for us!! But the white gate is eye-catching.
I have done a workshop for you. I feel the area on the right is waste space and my eye keeps getting drawn to it. The WS brings out the white gate and the field of corn.
I hope you think so too.
Cheers
Janice

Hi Silke,
I am looking into this photo, thinking and imagining myself sitting on a bench under a shade enjoying the beautiful light and blue skies - yes Silke, that mixed light is the beauty of this composition - love the peaceful mood here.

IMO, the f/6.3 didn't hurt the clarity.
Regards,
Ramdan.

Nice to see that fences and gates in Canada are like those here in Australia...not level :). Excellent work with the light and shade Silke, a good POV and fine detail. A healthy looking corn crop too,
David

PS I saw somewhere something about a new job?
