Farm Field by maggiemae

Farm Field

It was Book Club today and as usual forgot to take a photo until we all left. A rural home where you had to take a country road - during our serious ( as sometimes happens and I try to ignore) conversation about the horrors of Russia, Syria, fifteenth century England, a cat wandered past the window with a huge bunny in its mouth!
Three Good Things:
1. The hostess closed all doors into the lounge.
2. A jolly good conversation with my special man about what was brought up in the Book Club. World Troubles. The two of us sat around our kitchen bench and talked. I slapped our black bench as said, “Where are the nibbles”? None - as I was in charge… but
3. We finished the chocolate fudge pudding leftover heated up but with cold ice-cream. It really did make difference to my high blood pressure!

This was an unusual sheep with large curly sharp horns!
That poor tree must think it's days are numbered! Lovely composition

That purple tree! I honestly can hardly watch the news because of all the incredibly bad things happening in our world right now.

I picture you there, gazing out of the windows wishing your could take a picture of the cat and the bunny, and then later on demanding the nibbles! Sounds like an interesting day.

@helenhall Thanks Helen - its always good to get out of our comfy zone and think about others!

@phil_howcroft I don't know quite how it became purple - I just upped the contrast on this shot! Maybe its a copper beech and about to come into a leaf!

Wonderful composition!

nice image, especially the great purple tree

Sounds like something right out of the Theater of the Absurd- classy discussion on the literary merits of a book and a cat carrying a poor bunny across the windowsill. Both the tree and the ram are eye-catching and make for an interesting shot.

Great rural capture

And the trees die while standing! Great shot.

@haskar I think this one is still in its winter coat!

Love that purple tree. As for the world news, I find it all very depressing. War has very, very rarely resolved anything in a constructive way, and even then the human and physical damage is horrific.

A stunning image and of course a wonderful purple tree. I have stopped watching or reading any news, especially in our country! If it is important, hubby will tell me all about it ;-)

@golftragic I agree about world news - just makes you glad you live in a fairly safe land!
September 7th, 2018  
@maggiemae Absolutely. Just wish some of the 'big' powers would take a cold shower and simmer down.

@golftragic John is always saying just shoot them through their kneecaps.... not a saying that I would like to publicise though!

purple tree, that is striking.

The purple really catches the eye in this shot. A lovely rural scene, too.

I'm liking the pile of chopped firewood! It looks like a perfectly usual farm or lifestyle field but you alway have such a lovely variety of different tree species. There are such dreary books around! That choc pudding has lasted ages!

The purple tree is positively ghostly, especially with the white trunk.

I really like this photo. It has a nice composition and lots of fascinating subject. It’s full of color too. FAV

@grammyn Thank you Katy! Just a field on a farm but as you say some interesting things going on. I wonder what that spike in the tree stump is all about!
September 7th, 2018  
@maggiemae Now, that's a darned good idea!!
