Painted horns - after the festival

Greetings Marilyn, The thumbnail gives the impression of a B-horror movie with some poor beast being attacked by a mutant pile of grass. Nice to see that some of the old ways of farming are still around and haven't been mechanized away yet. Looking forward to your NZ and Aus. collections when you return. Will you be filing online and real time?

Cheers,

Rich

Oh, dear! Now that I look at the thumbnail, I see what you mean.

I don't know whether my husband's going to take his laptop on the trip. If he does, might have a chance to upload some shots along the way. I'm not taking mine--I have far too much historical research and writing on it to want to endanger it!

It's been a hard days life... Been working like a dog

Well it seems that the old song of "The Beatles" can be a title to this picture.

Cheers,

Alex

Hi Marilyn. I actually had the exact same impression as Richard. That's a nice shot.

Life is hard ... ;-)
