Pasture, Stokes Ferry Rd.

A very nice pastoral image Landrum. I like the deep reaching shadows on the right edging towards the cows and eventually engulfing them. A well composed image.

Thanks, everyone.  For me the unsung star here is that shock of tawny-colored broomsedge in the front center of the picture.  I have always loved broom sedge, and I don't even know why.  I learned to identify it from my father.  Perhaps that has something to do with it.

BROOMSEDGE

Lannie,  It's the fence and the broomsedge that clinch the composition in this image.  I might crop out that foreground shadow, but I realize that this is only IMHO.  Nice image.  Larry

That's probably a good idea, Larry.  Thank you.

This lens still lists (after all these years) at almost $1500 at B&H and Amazon. For the record, I got it at substantially less than half-price at KEH.com, and it is as close to perfect as it can be.  (It actually does rival the 24-70 f/2.8 on full fame.)

This was shot at 1/8000 sec as I drove by at 55-60 mph.  As always, I was watching the road ahead, and so as far as I am concerned, God took this picture.  (I will take credit for rolling the right passenger window down.)
