That's a very nice picture: the man working at the field with the several flowers is a very attractive image. Good depth and composition with the beautiful clouds in the sky.
Very well done. Thanks for sharing.

:) I could bet he's playing golf. :) That clouds make one wander if he's trimming them or the grass. Good composition.

Hallo Raluca!
This really is a lovely picture - even if it shows a man at work. I like very much the great part of sky in your picture -and it really is great. The light in this photo is - summerly! Summer at it's best...! Thank you for showing this!
Greetings from cold, rainy and dull Germany!

Hi Raluca, nice photo of the man working, but what he is doing? I think more contrast could gave a nice result as the man face is in shadows it could be a problem, take a look on the ws.

It is a nice place to walk I think.
Greetings from Brazil,

Hi Raluca,

Very nice subject, a working man in a field
and you have made a lovely capture of this.
Beautiful soft toned colours and I like the way the clouds
are looking. Great composition!
TFS

Greetings, Nel

Hi Raluca. Beautiful "action shot" of the farmer working in the field with the scythe. A timeless scene really, nicely framed with the low-placed horizon line and the richly textured cover of clouds hovering above. This could also work nicely as a much closer portrait of the farmer taken from a low angle, of course as long as you are outside reach of his tool ;)

josepmarin (59385) 2006-11-05 14:16

Hi Raluca,
Very nice composition created with only three elements, which obtain a very beautiful and very simple image.
You have distributed very well the spaces in the picture, with the field and the man occupying a third of the whole, and the rest to emphasize the beauty and elegance of this wonderful sky and the clouds.
Simply fantastic.
Regards,
Josep

Hi Raluca!
This morning I was looking at this shot thinking what a nice shot and what a stupid title... "moving away". What's that having to do with this. Initially I thought the way hermin did that you were showing us a golf player. Then I did figure he was actually mowing but did not put that in english. I think only later when I was in the shower it hit me I may have read the title wrongly :-)
It's a great shot, Raluca, though not perfect. If you wanna see how close you were to perfection in my opinion check the WS.

Delightful and peaceful picture, this one!
Beautiful and soft colors, good light and definition. The man is very well framed by the clouds and the wild flowers.
TFS and have a nice day!

Hi Aralda,
Simple, yet effective composition. Great blue sky with a lonely man under it, looking lost in a big green field.
Nice capture of a tough farmer's life.

Hi Raluca,
From the thumbnail I thought this was a picture from the golf course:)) Excellent POV, perfectly placed subject. The clouds provide a beautiful backdrop.

What a fantastic POV Raluca.
Your placement of the subjects is superb.The exposure of the sky is a treat to watch and the shot is par EXCELLENCE. A shot of joy and happiness.
I really love it.

Bonjour Raluca,
La composition est trθs bien faite, elle donne l'impression d'un travail sans fin de la part d'un personnage, qui semble perdu dans l'immensitι du ciel.
Le ciel reprιsentant la grandeur de l'ιtendue du champ a faucher.

Hi Raluca.

Fantastic composition with the lonely man inside this flourish field. He's working, but he's alone a surrounded by a wonderful and clouddy sky.

Regards.

greg (2835) 2007-09-28 12:23

That sky is very eye-catching and the rule of thirds works very nicely here.
Great composition too!
