Golden Morning


 
BetterPhoto.com All Time Best Photo Contest Editor's Pick BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest SECOND PLACE Winner   Golden Morning
Golden Morning
This old barn sits in a valley very near to where I live. Although this looks very still and peaceful, this area of the valley is known for it population of rattlesnakes. As a boy I would make money hauling hay from fields in this area. Once, I picked up a bale only to have a rattler greet me from under the hay.

Very nice effects, Danny. I always associate rattlesnakes with western states. It would definitely be disconcerting to suprise one of them!

  Wow..what an experience! I would've passed out probably. Took my mind away from this gorgeous image! The composition and light are both exquisite, Danny. Another big WOW!

  I hope you had your snake boots on Danny when you took this beauty. That looks like some pretty high grass to be walking through.

  Beautiful capture, nice light and treatment, Danny! Bailed hay too for many summers as a kid, and we had a few snakes in the bales but not rattlers.
