Green Lines

I had to sneak in a field shot.

This week I have a grueling schedule so will visit blogs but probably not comment on them or answer comments on mine.  I do appreciate your comments, though, very much.
If I get any spare moments at all, I will be eating or sleeping.

We don't bother with straight lines on An Island Walk.

Great effort, Mary. It seems the farmer was having a spot of difficulty with his cropping machine.
Mary MacADNski: Liquor.
I don't like straight lines grin
Mary MacADNski: Straight anything is boring.

And I am happy that you sneaked it in
Mary MacADNski: I love the various fields here.
I like the field ripple

must have had a couple of quick drinks before planting
Mary MacADNski: That's possible it. LOL

The emerging green shoots of recovery
And you did well Mary. I really like it!

Very very nice smile
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Savo. The seeder must have been suffering from vertigo.

Good lines
Neon grass....

I like the lines, but the colours are really terrible.
Mary MacADNski: I guess after all the comments and correspondence I have to say that it's just the way my camera and I work. You seem to dislike my shots (and/or colour) quite often.

I know we're all very different with cameras styles, use or not of post processing, and it's various levels of use. I hope there is room for us all, in however we express ourselves.
I often like to take shots of the emerging wheat and barley fields, always impressed by the precision of the drilling. Lovely fresh greens here.
Mary MacADNski: I love fields in general and take lots and lots of shots of them.
So natural and yet absolutely abstract smile
Well caught at just the right time Mary.
Such a wonderful vivid green, Mary, do you know what kind of crop this is?
Mary MacADNski: No idea. Take your pick - oats, barley, rye, wheat....
Lines of hard work Mary..and well captured.
Nature doesn't work in straight lines, so why should the planter of fields.
Mary MacADNski: I love your way of thinking.
Shows up the contours of the land nicely Mary. Looks like a promising crop
Mary MacADNski: It is thick for sure and was planted at a good time. We've had weird weather and some fields are poor.
A simple pattern image but works very well.
Mary MacADNski: Thanks, Les. Fields always bring a wonderful view.
Maybe it is my monitor, I am behind a calibrated LaCie 324. That is a very high quality monitor. But I never said I dislike your shots, I only dislike the colours in a couple of them. I was under the impression that people who use a red smiley can take real criticism, and not only the 'wow' and 'aaaaah' comments

But I also have no desire at all to offend you in any way, so I won't be commenting on your photos anymore.
Mary MacADNski: Perhaps I should change the smiley to the positive comment colour. It's just that I can't control the colours of spring. I guess I could alter them in a post-processing program but don't have the time or desire to change nature.

When you commented that I should remove a fence to make the photo better, I stated that I see my photos as recording a moment in time. If the fence is there it is there. It is simply a matter of choice.

I enjoy your heavily processed photos and if one seemed a bit much I would never think of saying you should not post process your photos. I think there is room enough for lots of different styles and acceptance of them.
