Jeffrey, welll done

I like how you've emphasized the subject by darkening the background slightly, I like the lighting on the subject - it's dramatic - and I like the composition.

In fact, I like everything about this photo. This is a very good photo.

on 1/4/2009 2:46:45 AM The use of grand angular lens, the low point of view the perfect light, the dark sky give this shot an amazing impact!

on 1/6/2009 7:45:48 AM The lighting here is so unusual and perfect that it appears he is in a studio with a field as a backdrop, having real props in the forefront. It's very professional looking and I like it! Great job Jeffrey! -Laura :)

I think everything has been already said about the quality of the image and I too am so impressed by your skill Jeffrey.
Other folks' responses fascinate me though, as it seems that hardly anyone looks into an image rather than just at it. It is as if technique is more important than the subject and the story it tells. For me, I find myself wanting to know why this farmer is holding the corn leaf, presumably checking it for disease or insects but is looking behind himself. You used a short lens and are obviously making the image with his permission and I am wondering what you said as he is not looking at you, but seemingly behind you. This is why I like so many of your images Jeffrey; there is nearly always something in them that holds my attention.
Excellant work my friend. Pete

Fabulous image!! I love everything about this. I would love to know what lens you used? Whatever it was, it was the pefect choice for telling the story and your settings are also perfection.
