Harvest

Did I see you down
in a young girl's town
With your mother in so much pain?
I was almost there
at the top of the stairs
With her screamin' in the rain.

Did she wake you up
to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up,
let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man.

Did I see you walking with the boys
Though it was not hand in hand?
And was some black face
in a lonely place
When you could understand?

Did she wake you up
to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up,
let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man.

Will I see you give
more than I can take?
Will I only harvest some?
As the days fly past
will we lose our grasp
Or fuse it in the sun?

Did she wake you up
to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up,
let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man.

By Neil Young
1972

Harvest time was ended some months ago on the Alps.
now for farmers is the time of the animal manure.
That image was took 1 hours after the sunrise, from the balcony of my home, looking down on the sweet grass and forest dunes that run down for more than 800 meters in the valley.
The wooden structure on the field is the typicall one used on the Alps for animal manure.

Nice shot, I like your framing. But how short is this grass the shadows are on? Nice colors and well composed!

A nice shot, again Paolo.You play nicelywith light ,shadow and colors.

Che bella composizione con le ombre e con le luci e con i colori!!
Bravo Paolo, le foto fatte con la digitale rendono molto di più di quelle allo scanner

Ciao Paolo,
il 'paese dalle ombre lunghe'... ma senza la neve!
Dici che è dal balcone di casa, certo non con lo stesso panorama di quello di S.Siro... Anch'io ero a Bergamo e dintorni per il ponte, ma non con questi splendidi colori, soprattutto accattivante il "puntinismo" creato dalle foglie in piena luce che si contrappone al verde compatto del prato e dell'ombra.
Ottimo taglio, eccellente effetto grafico... insomma, molto bello!
Giorgio

AH!! il buon vecchio Neil.. sempre piacevole da "riascoltare"..:o)

ottima la foto Paol, mi piace molto il taglio grafico e i giochi d'ombra le donano quel movimento di chiaroscuri che fa la differenza, complimenti e buon week end,
Fabio.

Ciao Paolo

i like this view

bye
loic

Hi Paolo,another nice pic, with a great composition, i like the color and the POv, only i can tell, the pic is perfect, regards manuel

Hi Paolo,
Superb colors in the trees.
I found the foreground with the two shadows too big here.
Regards,
didier

Hi Paolo,
Fantastic light effect, well captured, greau contrasts, well done.

Una foto bella!

I love the contrasting colors and shadows.

The shadows seem to be causing a difference of opinion.
Personally i like them as they balance out the shadowy area at the back. I love the way the light has hit the foreground only
Kath

Hi Paolo, the colours are - as usual- beautiful in your photo, here another great plus is the strong light that created these long shadows- great idea to catch it!
best regards
Aleksandra

Hi Paolo,
nice autumn. Good composition with the shadows. It's a bit enigmatic climate. I like the colours also. Good job.

Paolo bonsoir "c'est très beau" - tu es un artiste, cher ami et ce mélange entre les ombres, la lumière et les couleurs d'automne est purement et simplement merveilleux.
Merci et bon week end

Ciao Paolo!

What a contrast. I like how you made of those shadows your main subject. Very clever and original. THe small hill also helps a lot to the final compo.
Well done my friend,

Gabriel

Ciao Paolo
I like the shadow in the green gras and the yelow tree of autumn. Good note. Thanks

Ciao Paolo,
What I like here is the strong light contrast between the trees and the background hill, actually I was not so much impressed by the long shadows, found them rather disturbing, so I went for a different crop in WS. Maybe not better, just a different way to see this scene.
Buona fine di settimana,
Jean-Yves

Interesting compo p. A fine fall mood presented with a good balance between light and darkness in the background. The two long shadows makes it fun and interesting.

very dreamy... great shot with super colours and good quality of photo, regards Piotr

Hi Paolo - wow, super colours and excellent light, and an interesting note, even though we were barely old enough to talk in 1972, some songs never go out of style.

Paolo, la lumière rasante donne les meilleures couleurs, le premier plan donne une impression de calme et de simplicité en opposition avec le désordre des couleurs de l'arrière plan.

A very nice shot for the light Paulo - really nice shadows and that darker shadow area across the valley - what a beautiful place to live!

best wishes Kev

Hello Paolo,
natural colors and strong contrast determine the play of light and shadow. Well composed!
