This is one of the best Milky Way images I've seen. The exposure and composition are both perfect. This is a great take on the Home Views theme this month, showing us a view of our local area that we rarely ever see, and which also reinforces how small we really are in the grand scheme of things. -Jeff

This image reminds me of early-morning dog walks, it's the type of scene that is only witnessed by those out for an early walk or to capture a special image. The building on the other side of the river creates a superb silhouette and you've handled the exposure of the foliage in the foreground extremely well.
We love the minimalism and simplicity of this image. The overhead perspective and the strong diagonal lines running through the frame really offer the viewer a unique perspective on this month's theme of Home Views. You've also selected the perfect time during the harvest for this shot, the combination of the harvested field in the top right corner and the harvest in progress works very well.
