Saskatchewan Combine


Photographer: Gary Ford
Club: Victoria Camera Club

Canadian Points: 19 (Second Place)
Scottish Points: 16


Canadian Comments:

This is such a beautiful image! Strong contender for 1 st. I don't know if you waited patiently, or reacted instantly, but you were rewarded with beautiful light.
I just feel that your subject is a tiny touch crowded. Jeez, it's out on the huge prairies. Give it a bit of room.


Scottish Comments:

Interesting subject matter, I definitely wouldn't have walked past this! — there are great colours in this image, particularly in the bottom half; I love the quality in this part of the picture. To me as it's presented that's where all your attention goes. Behind the 'cockshute part of the combine, the landscape and combine are very dull. This tends to split the sky from the foreground — adding a little contrast and light to this middle area of the image would I think strengthen the shot
