Looks like a storm brewing overhead. I like the contrast of that with the lighting. Creates for me a ‘what happens next’ feel.

  It looked like a storm but the clouds rolled past. What happened next is I walked back through some brush and retreated to my car, very happy with this image.

    Well that makes me smile. Definitely far more than ‘I got caught in the field in a downpour.’ 🙂

I think getting “caught in the field in a downpour” would be fun. But I’m happy with the image, too! It is definitely a “Mike” shot! Which is a good thing, in my mind! Your work just makes me feel good!

The colours are divine! I also think the tracks through the crop add an authentic farm look too.

Pretty shot, Mike. I like the leading lines that the tracks make, the dark clouds on the horizon, and the nice soft pastel colors. Well done.

  Thanks Judy. I was very excited when I drove past this on a dirt road in Michigan. I pulled over and made my way back to it but had to squeeze thru a tall patch of weeds to do it. Then the image opened up for me as you see it. I was thrilled.

Wonderful!! This could have been taken in my part of the country!
This is why I do love color photography – it’s hard to beat those greens, blues, ambers, and grey/white.

  Black and white has its place, but some photos demand they stay as they were found.
