He saw me.. by maggiemae

He saw me..

This time of the year we have a big Calf Sale. I knew from the constant bellowing from along the road from our home for the 24 hours preceding!
Photos of the black, the brown, the bi-coloured large calves didn’t appeal. Then a man appeared coming into the open area where I was. I realised on downloading that he was looking straight at me!

Three good things:
1. My quick 3 shot exposures worked with focus
2. I have another delightful photo of school children making a crocodile that John said he did as a game in the late 1930’s! I’ll post this one
3. Trying to empty the freezer drawer makes it easy to organise our meals! - 3 more nights! H...e.lp!
nice catch

ThT looks like a man who has worked hard his whole life and doesn't have time or energy for any nonsense.
April 14th, 2016  
@pandorasecho I would think too, Dixie that he doesn't have a wife - he's a skinny as a rake, smokes and wears old hats!
