Four weeks and five days later.....

..... and the field with the scarecrow in : http://365project.org/dulciknit/365/2012-04-06
now looks considerably greener. And works better viewed large.
That brownish thing in the background is meant to be a chalk figure of a lion. It was concreted to make maintenance easier and keep it looking tidy. Now it just looks grubby instead of weedy. It's on the hillside below Whipsnade Zoo.

I kind of liked the diagonal thirdy things going on and left the power cables in because I thought they added to the whole effect.

Great composition, perfect placing of the figure.

His arms have moved slightly. Spooky. So, a scarecrow, a lion ... where's the tin man?

[Jean Tookey]

The field has benefitted from all the rain. A good shot

[Celia Leaberry Gould]

Lovely. There's actually a lot going on in this picture isn't there?

[Cindy Muir]

Definitely greener. Alison, somehow even your "simple" shots have so much to look at. I love all of these lines and segments.
