B&W field - get-pushed challenge 8.4.14

Not last week but the week before Rachel challenged me to "Look through the photos you have favd in 2014 and choose one that jumps out at you, one that you really love. Then take a photo inspired by that photo. Doesn't have to look the same, although it can do, could just be that it conjures up an idea for you."
I found this really hard, though it appealed to me enormously to emulate one of those wonderful shots. The week in question was horribly busy and I didn't get it done, but remembered it and had a play this week. Here's one of the two that I loved and tried to capture the same feeling. The originals are far superior but you can see I gave it a go.
Here's the original, by Sean O'Neill (of course!) http://365project.org/seanoneill/365/2014-03-24

Looks very dramatic in B&W - love the puffy clouds.

Excellent in bw, feel like you could just zoom down the hill

This is fabulous, great lines in the field and the sky is fantastic. Again it's really got the feel of the original. I'm also a huge fan of @seanoneill 's photos. Thanks for tagging me after the event - it's been great to see these.

@filsie65 @rachelwithey stop it, you're making me blush! Thank you both for the lovely things you've said about my B&W photos. I doff my cap at you both.

Cool lines by the tractors.

Beautiful shot, Phil! I love the lines and the skyline. You did a great job. It's very lovely. I wish I had more of a life so I saw different things. Well done, Phil. :)
