I set myself a project recently to photography everyday ordinary places, something I hoped would make me concentrate on colour, composition and light. While they're everyday places used regularly by people I didn't want to have people in the shot, they tend to be distracting elements unless they're a necessary part of the picture. Anyways, I've been living on a farm for the last 6 years and have photographed it every which way. That makes it a tough challenge to see something new.

Mostly it was just good light, Diego, the sun is quite low in the sky around this time of year in these parts. It's also a combination shot using three bracketed exposures - the darkest being used for the sky, the lightest to bring out shadow detail. I also do a bit in photoshop, filling layers with colour and such, and a bit of sharpening...but all quite simple stuff.

Great image. And like the person above me, how DO you get these colors?

Well, your off to a fine start - seeing and capturing in a different way. Without people is a good idea too. Nice colors on this one. You do seem to have an eye for increasing depth of color nicely balanced.
