AWSOME and ever SO BEAUTIFUL!!! Great colors and comp. Really love this one Lynn #701006

Hi Peaces...thank you so MUCH for your continued support and kind comments. I really had fun "painting with light" and "moving pixels around" on this image. I feel my restless, artistic urges have been calmed after completing this image..for a while anyway! Lynn #4572037

Susan Weisensel July 28, 2007

I can't understand why you don't have more comments on this photo. It is stunning. Maybe they just don't understand Wisconsin. I really love the light, color and subject of this photo. #4573290

Lisa J. Boulden level-classic July 28, 2007

I love this, Lynn. The soft yellow glow and the farm scene with the hay just drew me in. Fabulous... #4574377

Lynn Haack July 29, 2007

Susan, Lisa, Arlene, Judy and Karen....thank you so much for commenting. I was not sure how successful this image was...very dramatic lighting and color sat. Any suggestions for improvements are always welcomed and appreciated. Thanks again for your kind encouragement...it really helps to motivate me to keep trying new things....blessings to all. Lynn #4574471

Mitch Spence level-classic July 29, 2007

I emotionally responded to this just as others obviously have, Lynn. This is kind of an archetypal scene for Midwesterners such as we are. Beautiful work. #4574681

Cassie L. Woodlee July 29, 2007

This is just wonderful, Lynn! Love the colors, the framing, and the overall composition. #4576141

Nikki McDonald level-classic July 29, 2007

The composition and light are stunning here, Lynn. As Judy said, even the thumbnail was compelling. You obviously knew when to keep going and when to stop--the editing is very effective.
Another response from a moved mid-westerner :) #4576150

Wonderful, Lynn! Great job! #4576601

Lynn Haack July 30, 2007

Susan, Nikki and Brian....thank you so much for your very supportive comments. It helps me to know when I have done something "right." And it is such a wonderful compliment to hear that this image causes an "emotional" reaction. That is one goal I strive to accomplish with my photos, but only rarely succeed in doing so. Many blessings to all....Lynn #4579139
