Marche du Mardi by vignouse

Marche du Mardi

Our Tuesday afternoon walking group resumed today after a break for the holidays. We walked partly in Paimpont Forest and partly in typical Breton farming countryside - this will give you a taste of the afternoon.

Definitely BoB.
You do wonders with imagery. Loving this.

a great landscape but the weather looks dull and grey
January 15th, 2019  
@shannejw Yup! Dull and grey is the way it was!

Lovely monotone scene.
January 15th, 2019  
Great composition.
January 15th, 2019  
All lined up! Great shot.

Most of the cows are interested in eating but a couple are checking you out. A dull grey day begs to be down in bw

I like the lines, both the trees and the cows!

Idyllic rural scene, so different from what we see here.
January 16th, 2019  
Nice contrasts

Wonderful pastoral capture with a great composition, tree shapes
January 16th, 2019  
Ratio cows : trees looks about right!
January 16th, 2019  
hopefully it's a stroll not a hike. what lovely countryside to enjoy as you walk :)

I love the apparent descending sizes of the trees. Lovely bovine capture.

The walking group sounds like a great way of getting out for new shots. This is a good one, I especially like how you managed to line up the cattle.
January 16th, 2019  
I agree with @gamelee . It is nice you got the cows to line up so well.
January 16th, 2019  
Don't know how you manage to get such good shots as this when you are out with a group. I need to be alone and not have the distractions of people talking to me/or me feeling that I'm slowing down/getting in the way etc.

PS How far do you walk on typical Tuesday? And years ago I meant to ask if you speak Breton, a language with close connections to Welsh. Or maybe I did but you didn't answer ... which is OK
January 16th, 2019  
I had my eyes tested the other day and the prescription was 'no change'....but I struggled to see if these were cattle or sheep? It's a lovely shot nevertheless. I'll just clean the specs!

@yrhenwr Thanks David - to answer your questions in the order that you posed them:

1. The rest of the group just leave me to it - I soon catch them up.
2. No I don't speak Breton - the Breton speakers are mainly in Finistère.
3. These are beef cattle but not just any beef - they're Charolais.

Wonderful shot!

I like this landscape and row of cattle. It seems that you are a high point on the land to capture the tree tops and sky the way you did
