Cold Comfort Farm - Stella Gibbons
by Stagolee

Comment by Bear_Music:
This is difficult for me, because I love the book and I want to like the image, which is indeed pleasant enough as those things go, but pleasant isn't what Cold Comfort Farm is about, now is it? These are confused, rustic people living in squalid surroundings, hostage to a past that no longer sustains them, and I want at least a hint of that in the imagery.

So it's a 4 from me.

I did not read the book so I looked it up:
Cold Comfort Farm is a comic novel by English author Stella Gibbons, published in 1932. It parodies the romanticised, sometimes doom-laden accounts of rural life popular at the time
Your image seems to be a shoehorn for the title of the book. Moreover, I am not in favor of the processing and somehow disappointed by the presence of a landscape in this challenge that does not seem to have a real connotation with the novel. 4

This shot does seem to have a "cold" feeling to it... perhaps its the cool tones that are highlighted.
Really like the sky and the clouds here. Though, it seems a tad on the dark side. But maybe that's just the angle of my computer.
Who knows. Lol.
