Thanks for commenting, Ken. You often use the term, "too harsh" in describing lighting. I know from your >many past comments that you prefer early or late light.(we all do when appropriate) Is other than early or late >what you mean by "harsh?" Pretty much except when its diffused thru clouds or overcast or tree/brush cover.

If you think the light too bright, that's not a problem for post processing and is more often than not monitor >related.

My use of harsh doesn't mean too bright a light but harsh as in the quality of the light not the quantity. The light around sunrise & sunset is much 'softer' than the light in the middle of the day.

Simply curious as to your interpretation of the word "harsh."
Otherwise, it's obvious you agree with my stated assessment of this image.

Thanks,

Jack

Yep.

Light that is too harsh, (some) Poppies that appear past
prime & too many other distracting elements.

holding the K20 through a couple strands of fence barbed
wire and pointing it virtually straight down. The shooting
conditions in this area were some of the most difficult I
think I've ever experienced. Substantial new barbed wire
fence, w/very sharp angle iron "posts", on a steep shale
like ditch side that fell almost straight down. Had to place
one foot on a strand of wire and lean into the barbs (at
times) to get the camera enough past the fence to allow
later cropping out the fence. All shots taken in this
fashion.
