I shoot a lot of farm-hay, etc. photos. I like the composition of the 2nd one. Nice job.
Thanks very much. I went by that field a couple of times and knew there was a good shot there but wasn't sure I had found it.

Nice photo's, but unless you know the owner of that field I don't think I would go back there. More than likely,those were warning shots and basicaly means time to go. If you think you can contact the owner with out being put in harms way, they may give you permission to be on there property. Thanks again for sharing.
You are so right SloppyJoe. I have learned my lesson and will never assume because land isn't posted that I will be welcome. I plan on shooting on State land so I won't run into that situation again.

Thank you so much--this is exactly the kind of information I need now that I am trying to shoot in manual.

I think the images are a little soft, not sharp focus. What kind of lens were you using and what was the setting if it was a zoom. Need the camera info also to understand what you did.
Sorry--knew I would forget something.
#1-- lens 18-55 IS at 55mm ISO 100 f/5.6 1/320
#2-- same lens same settings
Thanks for taking the time to look.

Thank you for your encouragement. I will try but will only do it on state owned land. It really did scare me though I tried to make light of it. What a bonehead I was.

Catzeye and Mooseyes--thank you both for your critiques. I appreciate that you saw what I was trying to do. I like the edit you did and see the point about the sky.
As to the trespassing--you are right. I was trespassing and didn't think about the land owner. There were no "no trespassing" signs at all and I know there is a snowmobile trail that goes across that land so I assumed--and you know what assume means--that it would not be a problem. There are six houses across from that field and I guess I found out who it belonged to when he stepped out with the rifle. Guess I thought the rifle was a little bit of an overkill since I was within shouting distance. Just glad he shot in the air. But lesson learned and that won't happen again. I guess I will stick to taking pictures of my dog and flowers.

I am reposting this since I did not ask for C&C in my first posting. I am a new to the forum and photography have finally gotten up courage to post an image and ask for C&C. The story behind these pictures is that while I was in the field taking some pictures of the farm equipment and hay, the guy across the road came out and fired off some shots into the air--at least I think it was the air! I guess I was getting too close to the hay!! Would you comment on exposure and composition especially. If you decide to edit and repost--would you please tell how you did it and with what program? I have CS4

MWAC, love your dog!! This would have been my second choice if my husband had not allowed me to get my Max. He is the greatest therapy followed only by photography!

Stop lurking and participate!
If you need help on anything, just ask BUT SPECIFY: post no edit. I need to learn not to watch.
As to be a noob, who cares, we all are, in one way or another.
Cheers

Thanks English Wolf--my first posting here on this topic and your input has given me the courage to post on a couple of pictures on the pet thread!

Have really enjoyed seeing all these pet portraits, so much so that I have been inspired to post my first pictures!

My freedom stops before your toes start right?
It is the same here. Redoing AND posting w/o being asked is stepping on toes.

I am a noob that has not posted any pictures but do lurk (alot) and find it confusing when there is wholesale editing and reposting of others' work. I like to learn from the critiques but find that an edited repost with no explanations of what was done with what program does not help my education. My (lurking lol) 2 cents worth!
