Get Pushed 108: Ancient and Modern

My Get Pushed partner for this week, Paign @paign wrote: "For your challenge, I'm thinking 'opposites'. Should be a fun one."

Here's my first attempt, which is perhaps not what Paign was expecting, but there are lots of 'opposites' in this image: the town and the countryside; ancient and modern; age old farming and a modern technological approach; sky and earth; clouds and blue sky...

Wonderful shot Richard, I've seen so many landscape scenes this last week that I thought would make a good photo, but were spoiled by the hay bales being wrapped in black plastic.

[Richard Sayer]

@gamelee Hi Lee and thanks - here the straw bales have a clear plastic sleeve and the hay bales are completely sealed in pale green plastic... better than black - but not a lot!
