Hi Seb,
This shot is very good and I like it a lot. The shot has many interesting elements: different geometry, different textures... The photographer anchors the whole shot and a humor element suddenly appears. Standing ovation!
yoyo
I like the colors Seb and the balance and sysmetry you have, but I think it would be a little better if there were more of the photographer showing.
It's subtle, which I think is what you going for, but I think if there were just a little more, I think it would be that much better.

Another good solid shot. I like that there is so little of the photographer showing. But that sky is stupendous. You really had a good time at this location.

These images are fantastic!
Kind of remind me of those "where's wally" pictures.
I love the tiny subjects you are getting on vast landscapes Seb. Something I would never have thought of doing. I would have made the photographer (or the cow in your other image) my main subject. How wrong could I be when it quite clearly works extremely well this way!
I love the lines in your images, the colours and the clarity all being equally excellent.
Great series Seb. :thumbsup:
Very nice, but I also wish that the photographer was just a little bit larger in the frame. I almost thought it was a duck's head at first

This is one of those photos that short of staging it only happes infrequently!
The sky works perfectly to draw the eye right to the photography. He looks like he is peeking our of his blind waiting for nature to cooperate with his photography.
Good balance with one minor point, I feel there is almost too much grass and green. I get this feeling it doesn't balance in use of space in the frame with the rest of the photographs elements. Either that or, it needs to be a richer and darker color, but just a touch.
Thanks a lot everyone for sharing your view. I meant these shots to be printed large so I assume that the photog will be allright on a 11x14 print.
drg: There could be too much grass here. That's actually something I have been wondering about before submiting the picture but I didn't felt comfortable with a crop. I think that I should have composed sligthly differently to include more sky at the first place. Thanks for pointing out the issue.
