This composition immediately reminded me of Tim Burton's work! Love this excellent composition and the bright, lush colors! #8618794Michelle Alton May 18, 2010
You've portrayed it magnificently. The verticality and the long, hilly tracks leading to the house are fantastic...as are the backgrounds clouds...however they got there! #8618825John Rivera May 18, 2010
Incredible work Nancy!Nancy S. Kruskop May 18, 2010
Thank you for your kind comments!Michelle, that sky was the real deal. It was an amazing day for clouds - they were huge & fluffy & stacked up in layers. I don't remember seeing them quite like that before. It was one of those days when you drive around looking for something to put in front of the sky. :) #8619410

Nancy, this is just a fabulously executed image. Love the leading lines to that huge house with lush green to go with it, and then the marvelous sky adds so much to the composition and color of the shot. I really like this, hope the judges too! Good luck!UB. #8648358

An absolutely wonderful farm landscape, Nancy and so deserving of this Finalist! I love the strong lines to the farmhouse, the gorgeous green and brown colors, the detail, but it's the sky that is really the start - it is spectacular!
