In our area, a photograph was posted which was amazing but very blurry and unfocused. A local farmer had ploughed a huge area of his acreage into the name of our provincial rugby team who had actually won! Since then, the our intrepid duo have sourced this field and the determined driver (of Sadie) had found a higher place to photograph this in a much better way! When we got there today, they had ploughed the final score!
A local pilot had also flown over it, posted his shots to prove it was not photoshopped!
Three good things:
1. A great public march from our little town to protest against cuts to our most important hospital! About 2500 and I got some great shots.
2. Found out how to put ‘chapters’ into my journal! So much more work to do. Images have to be sent to the publisher separately.
3. 'Rick Stein in India' is totally fascinating! But we had some curry rice rolls from a takeaway here that came from an old recipe and we were asked to tell them how good they were! They were!
A beautiful imaginative ploughing......the whole thing with your snowy mountains & rows of still green trees makes this a wonderful photo & Sadie did a wonderful job too....you should send your version into the papers! Sounds like the book is coming on well ....very exciting....you must hardly have time to go to bed these days!
Very impressive!! The view is breathtaking by itself, but the fact that a farmer is such a dedicated fan of the rugby team that he would go to such lengths is indeed commendable!! And, then, there is you and your friend trying to find the best vantage point to photograph it!! :-)))
Wow what a fabulous view! That farmer is a dedicated rugby fan to do that! Well done on finding such a great vantage point to get your shot - your driver (hubby) did well! Sounds like the book is coming on. It's certainly keeping you busy!
Great shot, Maggie! That's so cool the farmer did that! I didn't know you were doing a journal. Is it one for photos and writings? Are you doing a photo book? That would be cool. Your photos are definitely worth it!
@prttblues I have transcribed my mother's journals, Bev. She kept several diaries when she travelled to Britain in 1929 aged 24 with her sister. They journeyed all around in a 1928 Morris Oxford convertible!
so much work. I am always drawn to almost-ridiculous efforts that humans feel called to put forth. I guess the intrepid pair figures into that too! nice shot.
Not that's what I call a good supporter. Sorry to hear about theossified hospital cuts. Our government instigated a cutting programme 5 years ago and productivity is still not back up to the level it was before the cuts but that seems to be the way of the world at the moment
What an amazing piece of 'field art', it needs a lot of skill to plough to this degree of accuracy - great capture Maggiemae, I hope the local paper published it.
