That's better, wide open spaces. I must admit I love B&W(I think I'm going back to film).

Laura from Birmingham, United Kingdom

the b&W works really well for this, brings up the contrasts in the grass nicely

BoB from Milano, Italy

beautiful black and white process, the right side seems almost an infrared

@BoB: Thanks Bob

Jip (Raven) from Hengelo, Netherlands

This almost looks like IR. Nice b/w photo.

@Jip (Raven): Thanks Jip

shroom from DFW, United States

I always find it odd to get a sense of vastness in a photo from wee Britannia. Nice one.

Sarito from Basingstoke, United Kingdom

P J W Miller from Chase Terrace, United Kingdom

Cheers Dave while you are not a fan of my today post, a lot of people including myself are. I don't think I need to play with it anymore, its a subjective observation I know. Anyway lets get to this one, it's an Ok image, I like the lines leading out to a perspective, the tones are fine a nice subtle blend but too much of a white distraction on the right hand side, just my view, overall you do produce some excellent work but this is not one of my favourites

26 Mar 2009 4:39pm

@P J W Miller: Thanks for the comment Peter. As you said, its all subjective. Please dont feel the need to justify yourself everytime I leave critical feedback, I'd prefer if everyone did this to me as opposed to short noncomittal statements

Staffs Bound from Stafford, United Kingdom

Not sure if this works for me, its an ok shot there are some good qualities about this, i like the sky, the rest is a bit bland, you seem to spend an awful amount of time stuck in a field according to your portfolio, perhaps a change of scenery would boost your self confidence

26 Mar 2009 5:05pm

@Staffs Bound: Thanks for the feedback. I like spending times in fields, and I feel up til recently my portfolio was dominated by seascapes and urban shots

Alun Lambert from cheshire, United Kingdom

Love this shot, great leads for the eye, very well exsposed and works really well in mono

26 Mar 2009 5:55pm

@Alun Lambert: Thanks Alun

Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom

I just love following these old tracks. Lovely work and super contrast range

26 Mar 2009 7:24pm

@Richard_Irwin: Thanks Richard

Graham Russon from Cape Town, South Africa

The title says it all, this is a great shot.

26 Mar 2009 7:52pm

@Graham Russon: Thanks Graham

manel from Girona, Spain

Buen B&W. Contraste y definició, perfectas.

26 Mar 2009 8:52pm

@manel: Thanks Manel

Suzanne from Huntington Bch, California, United States

Beautiful BW.

26 Mar 2009 10:04pm

@Suzanne: Thanks Suzanne

Ronnie 2¢ from London, United Kingdom

Very fine b&w. Never ceases to amaze me how much detail a b&w conversion releases.

27 Mar 2009 1:27am

@Ronnie 2¢: Thanks Ronnie

Steve Rice from Olympia, United States

It looks great in B&W also. A really beautiful place. I like this series a lot.

@Steve Rice: Thanks Steve

Mike from Lichfield, United Kingdom

I like trails, paths, tracks etc in photos. Black and white was a good choice for this shot. It's a shame the track doesn't lead the eye to something on the horizon. A tractor might have worked well, maybe a tree or something exciting weather wise. It's still a good shot though.

@Mike: Thanks Mike. I know what you mean, it would be nice to have something of interest to lead into
