Stupendous. I'm sure this will be one of my favorites of the day. The composition is so pleasing.

Really like this shot...not sure about the colour of the frame (distracting) and I might have cropped tighter either side...but a nice shot all the same.

Pour moi, c'est vraiment ça, l'été ! Le jaune du blé est magnifique. Superbe rendu !

Quel cliché "old fashion" ! La nostalgie du bon vieux temps ?! Parfaitement réussi, j'apprécie !

Fantastic shot, I like how the eye is drawn along to the trees and then the other hay bales lying around. The colours and sky are brilliant, and good choice of frame to accentuate the shot.Good one, Akarui.

Beautiful image. I would consider cropping out the part of the haybale in the front - right. It's a little bit distracting, and does not add to the photo..

@Jeffster: Thank you very much for your cropping suggestion. I have just tried it and the result is nice too but I finally prefer this version because the haybale gives more depth to the picture. May be a different framing would have been better... Go ahead with your suggestions, I really appreciate.

C'est beau comme un tableau de Millet... (manque justes les glaneuses...).

Gorgeous depth and tone - I do agree with the crop suggestion... but overall this image is stunning!

@Betsy Barron: Thank you very much for your suggestion. Rather than a simple crop I did some rescalling. I think the new version is better.

Magnifique photo : simplicité du sujet, traitement original, couleurs et luminosité qui font bien ressortir paille et ciel... une composition bien pensée, bravo !

The roll of his grass was very good. Processed his colour was very good, so as the cloud looked dramatic.

Actually they are straw bales, c'et de la paille et non de l'herbe...

I like it. The processing works very well. Very painterly.
