This photograph depicting a sun ripened wheat field, with heavy skies tumbling across the land, was captured yesterday when we set out to look at our new home in Lower Stoke on the Isle of Grain.

Wonderful contrast between the golden wheat and brooding sky, and some useful height given to the composition by the hedgebank on the right. Very nicely done, excellent moody image.

Great composition Nathan, the contrast between that heavy, grey sky and the warm sunlight corn is perfect. I too like the sense of perspective given by the hedgerow on the right... all round a top notch image.

A field ready for harvest lined by wild flowers and poppies, low warm light, a threatening downpour and a fine composition..........everything needed for a superb image which you have presented here, Nathan.

The composition is tremendously effective. The two principal leading lines meet at pretty much the darkest area of the storm cloud. Lovely light on the foreground which you have used well.

There's a real ominous feeling in that sky. I think the colour of the barley and hedge row make the oncoming storm cloud more striking! Great Photo!

That is one nasty sky but it brings out the beautiful colour in the rest of the image which is composed so well.

I hope the move goes smoothly and that you will be happy in your new home.

A very dark and foreboding sky in this atmospheric arable landscape, i hope you managed to get undercover before the heavens opened! I'm glad you included the map too as I thought you were moving to one of the remote Scottish Islands!
