Getting down to it
Following on from yesterdays image this was taken a while later, As you may have seen from my previous image there were no bales in that field the farmer had been round during the day and taken them away.
With the light fading due to that cloud bank coming in from the right I decided I would not have time to wander over to where there were still some bales. My dilemma was the lack of any foreground, there was only one way to get any effective images, get on your knees and improvise in the stubble.
My tripod will not go that low so this is hand held at f16 at 16mm with stabiliser on , gosh I love that lens.and thank goodness for the articulating screen too. No filters.
I moved around the field and took a few more similar images until my knees said no more .
The bales are still down the far end of the field and the farmer has left the gate unlocked for me, so before he takes away any more I may pop out this evening and see what I can come up with.
