A Wall of Hay

I went cycling today with this guy - Gilbert - a real gem. We did 160km through the countryside in the western suburbs of Paris. A great day! The walls of hay bales in the fields amused us.

Wow, great Photoshop textured background :) I have no idea why my initial reaction was amusement, nor do I care.

@randystreat The baler machine ejects bales into a cube or rectangle shaped container mounted on a trailer. Later, the trailer tips up, dumping it's load into position to create a wall section. Repeat as necessary.

What a great composition, I'm still getting over the 160 km cycle ride though! Good for you!

100 miles! that's some going, and well done to the fella too. how long did that take Issi? Cool shot by the way.

I've surely never seen hay stacked THIS high.

Goodness I don't know if I'm more impressed by the wall of hay or the 160km!! Makes for a great shot Issi.

@gamelee Just over 7 hours cycling Lee. Average speed 22km/hour. We stopped for lunch after 105 km. Quite hilly at beginning and end, flat in the middle, but with a head wind. Nice cycling weather.

[Beverly Parks]

Wow, I've never seen hay stacked so high!

[CC Folk]

Fav! An interesting shot!
