 I took this photo back in 2005. This was taken with my old Nikon D70s with the kit lens. This is one my my favorite photos. I've shot this brick house many times over the years, but this was the first time. It was the absolute worst time of day to be shooting, just after noon on a cool autumn day. I had been working 60-70 hours a week for months straight and just needed to get out of the office for a break. I went for a drive with my camera and that is when I discovered this. I took several photos to stitch together. This was also my first attempt at a panorama, back in the day. I took all of the original files through Lightroom today to update it all, but the original is pretty close to this as well.

the light is AMAZING ..!!!..
i feel like i've stepped into that scene .. its a wonderful image ... stitched to perfection .. wasnt aware that was allowed in standard .. or maybe this is just a panorama and one pic .?.
anyway .. you say the worst time of day to be shooting .. but my eyes tell a different story ..
its absolutely stunning .. especially like i say the light ..
the combination of the yellow fields and the sky creates such drama ..
i can see why this is one of your favs .. maybe you should print it .. its not only a fantastic image but it has the history as well .. :)
