I remember your 'Carpet made in Tuscany' which I commented on previously. This image was obviously taken on the same visit.

 

It is a striking image with a strong structure created by the dark/light division of the road passing across the frame. The line of Poplar trees enhances this, resembling a fence that divides the fields. Both fields also have marked internal texture created by the ploughing and reaping marks. These do not connect at the road, which enhances the sense of division.

 

The sunny field has a track cutting across the top right hand corner, while the dark field has a track or fold that leads down towards the left bottom corner. Contrasting these with the line of the road leads my mind to see converging or diverging paths depending on whether I choose to go right or left out of the frame.

 

Placing the dark grey field in the foreground created a somewhat sombre feeling. I can imagine myself walking in the shadow towards the right hand edge of the frame, to escape the darkness.

 

I do not consider this a picture of conventional landscape beauty. It is very interesting depths.

Checking back I find to my embarrassment that the 'Carpet in Tuscany' I referred to was actually by Stefano Manucci, who is obviously another Italian operating in the same area. My apologies to you both.

It apeals to me as it bold and graphical rather than as a landscape, I do love the way the topography has been compressed by the long lens
