Peter - I agree, it's great to see you posting again. I really like this image, it has an old time feel to it. Great use of black and white, dof and selective focus. I too wish for just a sliver more room below but overall, a great image.
TFS,

Agree with Rachel about old time look. Think I'd crop a good bit off of top. (If aspect were 4x5 it might look even more old time).

Love the use of space with the placement of the subjects; the bleached grasses and the shimmering heat. Great use of black and white, but I'm not old enough to comment on whether it is an "old time look" or not - ha ha!
Thanks for sharing,
Gerald

Thank you all for comments ... Nice to be back
...
Gerald .. Agree about the old time feel , I am too young as well .... I have just applied a warm tone .. Not sepia or antique etc.
The crop and space in front are all subjective .. I will be posting mostly B&W as its always been my favorite medium of expressing myself ... So please forgive me !

I think we could forgive you Peter, as it would bring another dimension to the Forum and bolster the occasional B/W posted too. 
Good to have you back and your valued comments too!

Love the framing, crop ratio and use of B&W here Peter, all enhancing nicely, would like a touch more lower room if you have it.

Not much to add to the above.

So good this hurts, evocative and perfect use of DOF.
