I like this one, but do think that the tractor has to be in a slightly higher in contrast, along with the grass in front. Just to let it come even more loose from the background.
Oh Rob, it is spectacular. I love the rolling clouds and the composition works beautifully. Thanks for leaving the "inspiration" message on my blog." Isn't it fantastic how we artists spur one another on?
i can see your point rene,i was aware of a conflict of interest between the tractor and bales,tried to tone down the bales but didn't like it... the tractor being a man made machine attracts attention anyway. lesson learned for next time?
Rob thank you so much for visiting my blog sometime back and leaving your very kind comment.
I love Hurry Harvest; I lived the farm life for a while as a child and can clearly recall the times when it was all hands on deck to race against the weather. Up in Nth Queensland we had tropical storms and the occasional cyclone that kept our boots knee deep in mud. It was a lot of fun for a child but I suspect it was a headache for the adults.

I like the haybales in this Rob- the saturated yellow works really well against the blue/violet backdrop.

Beautiful - the weather reads perfectly.
Wow, another sky painting. Nice atmosphere and light as usual.
I agree with Rene about the tractor. I was thinking that it looked a bit fuzzy.
thank you ryan,i tried to put as much contrast as possible in this one,to help with the drama...

yes it is all a family matter farming,there is always something,
lamming harvest shearing etc etc,
the farmers work so hard!
Great light. Winter is coming here too. Such short summers we have.
