Into my favorites. I am so loving this look and think that as you do these, they will make for a delightful series. I enjoy the colors of the grass, the barms and the old equipment and how that contrast with the beautiful sky. I also love how you brought out the textures. A work of rustic beauty my friend.
Have a fabulous day.

Val Feldman level-deluxe September 29, 2011

Definitely worth the tweak, Heather. The pov is perfect - low and drawing the eye into the discarded tools and over to the barn and the beautiful sky. I love the many textures and details of all the elements in this one and have to agree with Paddy - you do feel as tho you are peeking up over the tall grasses and into the scene. Hoping we see this one again - beautiful job! #9705182
