Interesting composition! It looks over-sharpened to me though, and the "halo" between the horizon and the sky is very "unnatural" looking. Otherwise, nicely done.
This is a textbook shot. I was wondering when it would pop up. Fortunately, I don't think textbook shots are bad. In fact, I think using that term means the shot is done how the shot SHOULD be done. Great shot.
Beautiful shot and composition... the clouds in the sky are fantastic, and the sepia tone works very well. The one nit I have to pick, however, is that the edge of the hill in the background seems a bit oversharpened, creating a distraction.
Nice scene. The composition could be improved by having the bale off-center and perhaps a little further away, so it wouldn't dominate the scene so much. Your use of texture is good!
This is a very good idea for a country photo. I would have not centered the haybale though, and maybe I would have taken this in landscape format instead of in portrait. Somehow it seems a little squeezed in like this. The quality of the image is very good though - 8.
In the background it looks like there is a white line between the mountains and the sky. is that from over-sharpening or sharpening edges?
Otherwise, I like it. Good texture in the hay and the grass.
