Re: PESO - Down In Indiana
I would like to see it cropped to an 8 x 10, losing the truck. Of course, I’m feeling especially contrary lately.

Re: PESO - Down In Indiana
Ditto, what she said. Double. For me, the fence, because it is parallel to the viewer and is not a leading line, doesn't add much. Truck? Maybe. I think it would have been a great photo without fence and without truck. Just sky and house and barn and lots and lots of field. But preference given to the sky. My $.02.

RE: PESO - Down In Indiana
I went back to this one in view of the concerns some have mentioned, and I must say the truck doesn't bother me: in fact, I think it adds to the composition. My eye went immediately to the red barn, as one might expect, and then travelled to the right along the arc to the truck, before going to the sky. My only quibble would be I would have gone as close to the fence as possible to look over the top of the rusty wire and posts!

Re: PESO - Down In Indiana
I disagree. The barn is the focal point, the others add to the scene. For instance, Bruegel's paintings & Giles' cartoons mostly have things going on in the background (often naughty) which adds interest & compels the viewer to look a bit deeper.

I think you are right about the competing centers of interest. I have other shots without the fence and truck.

Re: PESO - Down In Indiana
This looks great on my computer, and it’s substantially sized. But it was small and didn’t play well on my phone. Don’t know why. Great shot. Love the fence going one way, and the truck moving off in another direction. And of course the barn is a classic, and it’s perfectly placed in frame.

Striking. A bit of everything there - the threatening sky, the mowed field, the fence, the farm sheds, a Semi plus a few wild flowers for interest.

Re: PESO - Down In Indiana
With that "big sky," are you sure it wasn't Montana? The sky is, to me, the main feature of the image, but I think it is inclusion of the foreground fence that makes the shot special.
