I withdraw my nominationRound bales are perhaps not such an interesting subject(⧼Anna Massini alias PROPOLI87⧽) (talk) 08:16, 13 July 2023 (UTC)Anna.Massini(⧼Anna Massini alias PROPOLI87⧽) (talk) 08:16, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
- Hi Anna, on the contrary, round bales can be very photogenic, like in this FP from Italy, File:In Val d'Orcia.jpg. Unfortunately, you got the light from the wrong way in your photo. It is almost a contre-jour photo with the bales (the main subject of the photo) all dark and shadowy. Photographing this scene at another time of day would have made it much more interesting. I often go back to places and photograph them at different times and different lights, just to see how that will work in a photo. All the best, --Cart (talk) 12:26, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
- I was wondering how long it would be before you showed up!
- And @Anna.Massini: I second Cart's encouragement. I'm really curious what another photographer's take on rolled-up hay bales would be ... Daniel Case (talk) 19:04, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you. I had actually nominated the photo for the hay bales in which you can see a beautiful blue sky. Usually in the photos of the round bales you don't see much sky, these were on a hill and that's why from below I was able to frame the sky. Carter says well that the bales are backlit, but the photo is clean and bright. Then, seeing that no one was voting for it, not even contrary I thought of withdrawing it. It is unfortunately true that I should have photographed at another time, but it is far from my home, and in Italy now it is full summer and the light in the middle of the day is too strong for photos.(⧼Anna Massini alias PROPOLI87⧽) (talk) 19:15, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

- (Edit conflict) Haha! :-) And Anna, just so you know, Daniel is referring to me being the "bale woman" around here. I live in the countryside and I have photographed a LOT of bales over the years. It's a bit of a joke at FPC. Nevertheless, your photos are improving and I think you are getting better at choosing your subjects. Best, -- Cart (talk) 19:21, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
- I too am a woman and I live in the countryside. We have a lot in common. I have photographed and will still photograph many lies in my life. These, of the photo, I liked more than those around my house. Thanks for all. (⧼Anna Massini alias PROPOLI87⧽) (talk) 19:34, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
