Don't Fence Me In

Oh, give me land, lots of land under starry skies above
Don't fence me in
Let me ride through the wide open country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evenin' breeze
And listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever but I ask you please
Don't fence me in

West Sussex CC are working on restoring Halnaker Windmill and have fenced if off for the safety of idiots who have no sense.

This is a threefer -50mm sooc (35mm is equivalent), songtitle, September's words - hilltop, fence, weather, building,

[JackieR]

@joansmor it's a stunning building commanding a great view
@carole_sandford of course I went to Google, but not for the title, just the lyrics!!
@ludwigsdiana like you I enjoy the don't title challenge!

Thank you ladies xx

[JackieR]

@sarah19 thank you

[4rky]

Gret capture and great caption.
Nice contrast with the sky

[Jacqueline]

Beautiful mill and great song.

[Maggiemae]

This song would have been composed for American landscapes but goes well with this windmill!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Fool on a Hill might have worked too if you'd captured one of those "idiots" climbing the fence! I'm glad they're restoring it. I think windmills are such interesting structures. Good shot! and very impressive knocking off all those challenges in one shot!

[wendy frost]

Great capture against that wonderful blue sky. I like the song to go with it.

[summerfield]

that's a pretty windmill. i was humming 'the windmills of your mind' before i saw this. :-)

[Walks @ 7]

Kudos for the 3-fer.

[Babs]

It is fabulous, I always wanted to live in a windmill or a lighthouse when I was a child. I have always had a bit of a thing about round buildings.

[JackieR]

@onewing this one is quite substantial and is going to look brilliant inside soon
@joysabin I'm just showing off
@summerfield I did consider that Noel Harrison number
@wendyfrost thank you, it was a warm stroll up the hill
@olivetreeann that's a great suggestion Ann
@maggiemae and a night time starry sky!!
@jacqbb it's such a majestic building
@4rky that sky was stunning

[Babs]

@30pics4jackiesdiamond I think it is too late now, my knees couldn't cope with all those stairs and I would need a packed lunch to get there from Australia.

[Richard Sayer]

Very dramatic - I like this.

[JackieR]

@onewing I'd stand you a meal!! Save you carrying sandwiches!!!

@vignouse many thanks, it was a b****r to get at 50mm equivalent!!

[Babs]

@30pics4jackiesdiamond Okay, but only in summer. I don't cope with English winters, my blood has gone thin since coming to Australia 29 years ago.

[JackieR]

@onewing ok. Next time a heat wave threatens your invited over!!!

[Rob Z]

Such a nice, strong image.
