I liked the patterns in the windrows at this Idaho field. I thought the combine and the farm buildings added to the image. What do you think?

Hi Tom, I like your positioning of the combine in the foreground on a diagonal with the farm buildings. The windrows also add to the story. In a perfect world I would have preferred not seeing the electrical wires and large pole. I don't see many shadows in the image so I'm estimating it was shot sometime around midday. Early or later light would have added more impact to the image.

Nice shot showing rural life. Agree that the light could be better. I like the composition with the farm buildings, though I think you could also get a good composition with just the windrows and the combine.

Hi Tom,
Agree with others above. Can't even remember how many power lines have made me mad over the years. I think Chris is on to something with just the combine and the windrows.
