Hugely powerful - but I am not sure I have any sense of meaning here - a few background notes would be really useful. What I mean is what is making these lines and sure I can see a tree in the bg but am I really just looking at a ploughed field?

Powerful and works well in mono - just a little context (visual or written) please.

Hi
The white light areas are strips of polythene about 700mm wide where I presume they start to grow some form of produce under them.
The lighting was very flat but liked the lead in with the stripes of polythene and ground, we actually went looking to photograph a moto cross but found this first.

Good Shot Steve! A good pic shouldn't need any explanation and yours doesn't, this works a treat! Very visual!

Steve thanks for the background notes - and of course Tony is absolutely right it doesn't need an intro it to be recognised as a superbly strong and powerful image. But for me it had generated lots of interest and I was intrigued to know what made the image.

Best wishes Robert

love it when fields look like this - did quite a lot of this earlier this year, makes for a really absorbing lead into the shot, and it helps to have the tree for the eye to "arrive" at when it's been pulled up the shot by the lines

great shot, i knew it was plastic sheeting because i worked with it before but i agree that though a great shot doesnt need much explanation its always good to have some. theres been a few photos on here where i have wondered how the shot was taken or where, as many of us are on here to learn. though i have to admit to being guilty myself of not giving much information. cracking shot, with the tree just in the right place and the bend on the lines adding to it

Excellent.

Warm regards, Iain.

Wow. Amazing shot — the mint humbug field makes for a fantastically strong composition. But I'll not look at it much or I'll get a headache.
