Sehr fein! Da stimmt einfach alles: die Furchen der Sämaschine, die kreuzenden Baumschatten, das einsame Unkraut als Gegengewicht zum einsamen Baum oben rechts, der abfallend Hang und die entgegengesetzt abfallenden Baumreihen – grosse Klasse, Martina!
Danke sehr! Ich war auch (resp. bin auch) recht begeistert, dass es genauso geworden ist, wie ich dachte, dass es warden soll – außer s/w musste ich nix dran tun. Ha! :-) War das letzte Foto auf dem Sonntagspaziergang letzten Sonntag, bevor es dann nach Hause ging.
Ab und zu klappt alles.
This os the second great groovy shot … I loved the one a few days ago too. I often take pictures of ploughed fields but never pull them off with the aplomb you manage.
:-) thank you. Groovy! Ha! I like that. I always try different pov’s with fields, to get the symmetry, shadows, geometry etc.. right Like I said to Markus in German, this was the last shot on a Sunday walk last Sunday and I really didn’t do anything special. I was a little bit tired after the two hours walk and wondered, if this frame might work. Only a little bit of knee bending and bending forward, too.
Thank you! I never thought of them as Zen gardens, nice image. Usually I am complaining that there is field after field after field around here and nothing interesting to shoot.
It was the lines in tilled fields that Philo T. Farnsworth was thinking about when he invented the first TV set. Instead of a harrow to make lines, he used an electron gun to shoot electrons at a screen which glowed when the electrons hit them in a pattern to make a picture. Plowed fields have produced more than just grain and other plants. Straight lines are the sign of a good farmer.
And – it was a potato field! The one in Idaho.
Potato is an essential crop in Germany (that I like very much), so chances are high this one is potato field, too.
Let me see in the next weeks what kind of field this is, right now I can’t tell.
This is such a pristine shot that I feel sad that you must have left footprints when you took it. However I only feel sad because the photo works so well – if it hadn’t been such a perfect shot, I wouldn’t care.
Nope. No footprints. Bending here, bending there until the body looks like an S and each and every joint groans ;-)
Thank you very much!

Gracias. Las tiras son un signo de la primavera. Los agricultores siembran.

Another German Zen garden! Wonderful. The tree on the upper right is perfect.

Very nice story, thank you for this.
