Congratulations on winning my "Big Skies" challenge! Your image looked like a winner right from the start. The composition and quality of your BW editing showed both the field of bails and the increadable sky off and in harmoney with each other, creating a perfect balance and image! You rock!

Behind The Lens

Location

This was taken at a small place called Costessy (pronounced Cossy) on the outskirts of Norwich Norfolk

Time

This was taken in the evening

Lighting

Yes it was a lovely summers eveing

Equipment

For this I used my Nikon D7100 with the 18-140 Nikkor zoom mounted on a Tripod

Inspiration

I was out for an evening walk

Editing

Yes main processing was done using PSP and then easy hdr 3 to bring all the detail in the sky

In my camera bag

Normally I carry my DSLR plus the nikkor 18-140 zoom the sigma 10-20 zoom cleaning cloths spare cards and battery

Feedback

Make good use of the long shadows it adds depth to the photo also dont be frightened to use filters to highlight the sky and also make use of a sturdy support or use a tripod
