A very pretty rural scene, Lorraine. Really nice framing!

@Michael Skorulski: I appreciate that Michael, I've noticed that quite a few of my visitors didn't enjoy the darkness too much lol

Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada

I'm sitting looking at this and then I go "Oh, there's a cow". Great picture Lorraine. Was the cow off to bed?

Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan

I'd have liked to see more of that cow! as such....too dark for my taste!

8 May 2008 4:57am

@Japanalia: Yep, I figured you'd be one who's prefer the colour version G. LOL it was nice in colour, but for some reason I really liked the darkness when I switched it to b&w, thanks always

Cheryl from Boerne, United States

nice scene but I'll have to agree with Japanalia...too dark for me

8 May 2008 5:02am

@Cheryl: Like I told G. it was pretty in colour, but for some reason, that day,I loved it in darkness lol I'm moody ;)

Craig from Vacaville, California, United States

And early to rise! Love the POV and the whole composition!

8 May 2008 5:38am

@Craig: Thanks a lot Craig :)

Observing from Chester, United Kingdom

The long shadows suggest it's late afternoon, I like the contrast and sort of peeping through the fence view. Well done.

8 May 2008 6:00am

@Observing: Hi Mike, I loved the darkness of it...although it was in colour originally, which would have probably pleased some of my viewers lol thanks always...

MaryB from Staffordshire, United Kingdom

I love the natural frame created by the tree's , the light through the leaves is wonderful. A nice shot Lorraine.

8 May 2008 6:11am

@MaryB: Thanks so much MaryB, I appreciate your comments always ;)

Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, France

Ma première idée en voyant cette photo fut celle du titre d'une chanson française que j'aime bien de Patricia Kass (peut-être connais-tu ?) intitulée : "Entrer dans la lumière". Je l'ai réécoutée de suite, oui c'est cela elle colle bien avec ta photo. Je te l'envoie par mail.

8 May 2008 6:14am

@Evelyne Dubos: Tu es très gentille, merci bien Evelyne, c'est une belle chanson :)

T-Daddy from Dachsbach, nähe Erlangen, Germany

Nice Capture, but i think it is a little bit to dark.

8 May 2008 6:22am

@T-Daddy: Hi T-Daddy, you're not the only one...But I loved the dark mood, so I switched it to B&W...there will be more photos of cows posted in colour, I promise lol

Andrew Gould from Sydney, Australia

I like the semi graphic quality and strength it has.

8 May 2008 7:06am

@Andrew Gould: I appreciate that Andrew, thank you...love your cityscape photo today :)

Nice image

8 May 2008 7:54am

@Alun Lambert: Thanks a lot Alun :)

Anne from White Rock, Canada

Really nice composition and framing Lorraine! I find this style a little dark for you though! Not as pretty as usual! :-)

8 May 2008 11:02am

@Anne: Thanks Anne, I appreciate that, it was originally in colour and yes prettier, but I totally fell for it when I switch to b&w, sometimes, deep dark appeals to me...what? me? Moody? lol

standley from brou-sur-chantereine, France

Très beau contre-jour Lorraine. Ton cadrage est magnifique!

8 May 2008 3:11pm

Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom

Good contrast here Lorraine, and the details are still evident in its graphic tones, good work.

Janice Thomson from Canada

As an an old farm girl from way back when, this title enhances the photo in more ways than one. Excellent capture mon amie.

8 May 2008 7:54pm

@Janice Thomson: Merci ma chère, the country life, ain't nothing like it....not that I know anything about it, being from Montreal and all, but the beauty of it is so captivating ;)
