I like this, I think that the colors are interesting. The angle created here is different. I actually like how the powerlines are adding to this.

i'd really be nitpicking to give this an advanced critique; it really is a marvellous, soul-stirring photograph. so simple, with strong saturated colors to remind you of the time and place. the man is ordinary and epic all at the same time, and the angle is dynamic, creating an impression rather than a mere record of the moment.

only thing i can think of is that a half-step back might have better included his feet in the composition...which may or may not have been necessary.

all i can say is that i absolutely love this photograph. you should most definitely be proud of it.

:heart:

the power lines almost mirror the lines in the fence and create nice local symmettry. the vibrant orange of the ground is well balanced by the blue of the sky. very nice overall effect.
