In preparation for Winter the farmers in the Val d' Ocia Italy plow their fields creating wonderful colors and textures.

Great composition. The road leads you through the scene, stopping off at the first buildings to allow your eyes to take in the great processing, then leads you to the second group of building and finally up out to the right to the last set of buildings. Love just looking at this scene.

The composition for this one was obvious and made shooting the scene easier. Happy to hear you enjoyed the image Chez.

Love how the road runs through the image. If I may, a couple things that could improve this image. The first one is very simple, crop the upper 1/6 of the image out. Crop just below the farm house in the upper right and that will keep your eye in the image. The other thing that draws the eye would take more work, would be to remove the farm implements that are located in front of the house in the foreground. They really draw a lot of attention. This might work well as a B&W image too.

Mark, thanks for taking the time to comment. I am always happy to hear constructive suggestions on how to improve an image.

When processing this image I went back and forth with just the crop you suggested. I am still not sure which way to go.

To me the farm equipment adds a bit of color, interest, and story to the image. So, I am not inclined to edit them out.

I do have a B&W version. You are correct the image works well that way.

Thanks again, Steve
