I simply do not see how I could like this any better, Les. It's terrific! The combination of patterns with the rectangles, diagonal and circles is excellent and your composition perfect. I love the way the line down the outside of the piled bales completes that of the roof slope. Tonal range is terrific. I call it a winner and am putting it right into my favorites. #1294057Joy Rector August 02, 2010
