I would never have guessed

I am not very well up on farm equipment, but I am told that this is a spring on a harrow. It fits my theme of rust though so that is the main thing.

It looks like some sort of sculpture of an insect. Okay, I've got a strange brain, but that's what it looks like to me.

oh Babs how could you not recognise a harrow spring - hahahahaha

[Lee Potter]

It's got the look of an armadillo. Nice POV

[Diane]

This is one almighty spring Babs!

[sally agnew]

Actually Babs when I first saw it I thought it was one of those amazing sculptures fashioned out of machinery bits and pieces, bit disappointed that it is JUST a spring, wonderful find :-)

[Sam]

Mmm I don't even know what a harrow is! Off to google...........a great rusty find tho!

[Meredith McNay]

Great find Babs

[Peter]

Great Pov Babs, the bright lighting highlighting all the tones and details, lovely theme shot;)

[Babs]

@annied Because my ancestors way back were miners and David's were farmers.

[Babs]

@lpot1985 It would make an excellent sculpture in the garden wouldn't it.

[Babs]

@dianeburns Thanks Diane. It's huge isn't it.

[Babs]

@hermann I'd love this in my garden as a sculpture.

[Babs]

@gigiflower I didn't know either. It is rather an old fashioned one I believe.

[Babs]

@wanabe Thanks Meredith.

[Babs]

@pcoulson It was a bright day. I took this a while ago and it was really hot as it was inland, much hotter than on the coast.

[Hazel]

An amazing rusty capture and I immediately thought it looked like an animal even before I read your comment about it!

[8yearson]

Great bit of rust there Babs! Almost looks like some sort of aphid!

[Jane Morley]

Love his feet!

[Deb]

I saw the insect right away! Terrific shot.

[Angela]

I can see the insect too!

[Pat Knowles]

Yes looks like a spring ....we used to use chain Harrows so not familiar with this type....lovey rusty spring for your theme Babs.

[Kathie]

I could see this running around on Star Wars. I'm hearing funny bird sounds.

[Rachel]

Old farm equipment is great for rust and funny shapes. This one is lovely.

[Marnie]

Yep, it's a harrow spring. Love the shot Babs.

[Laurie F]

[April]

[Lois]

Looks like something from the movie Star Wars- maybe a giant insect! Great find!
