There is a windmill in the image - upper left behind the small barn in the distance.
I guess I could say just follow the rows!
Happy Windmill Wednesday!! (HWW)
It was another rapid stop occasion in the car, as these trees struck me as I was passing; many dozen of them, grown close, in a garden right by the house, with the sun streaming through.
Some interesting crop lines seen at Happisburgh all leading to the lighthouse.

As the sky had turned to nothing I focused my attention on my immediate surroundings for some inspiration , just a shame it was a bit breezy though.
Without a shadow of doubt, this is a grape crop self portrait of me under a tree.
I thought the grape vines and cropped hay would make for an interesting aerial abstract, I left my car & I in for posterity & scale.
Have a good week.
Local farmers harvesting the last crops this evening (before the weather turns) luckly came across this scene and with the three bales in front leading into the picture, with a nice arc of bales in the distance. The tree is dominant and capturing the last rays of light coming from the right.
I didn’t care for this image until I saw it magnified in the camera and liked what I saw. I liked the darkness and how, when cropped, the eye and branched really popped. I don’t think this image will appeal to everyone. Good thing I only have to please myself! With the exception of the Anhinga, the rookery has been relatively quiet. Thank you Anhingas!

Part of this years first hay crop sits waiting for pickup and storage. Normally we get 4 cuttings per season, weather permitting.
Harvested cornfield.
Creativity inevitably challenges accepted norms and conventions. So it was with this image for Smile on Saturday’s Fields and Meadows.
And now I feel guilty because, of course, the last paragraph was a complete subterfuge on my part, a deceit to make me look good :)
The reality is more humiliating. I only had a short time on the way back from a breakfast meeting this morning to pause the car and take some images so I could at least contribute something to this, one of my favourite groups.
Faced with very mundane field views and getting nearer home, desperation sang its strident tune. I thought I would try and tilt the camera and get a strong diagonal into the corner of the frame. This was the best I managed (a notable fail for the corner diagonal then!).
To be fair, way back reading a photography composition book I had questioned why we always have the horizon horizontal (I guess it’s to do with the language lol). It’s one thing, though, to ask a question and quite another to come up with a decent answer…
Anyway, something different gilding a toad :)
Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image. Happy Smile on Saturday :)
red clover is planted as a forage crop in dry areas and has traditional medicinal uses, some not proven.
Yesterday, Chuck Gerber posted a photo of invasive mustard that covered the hills near Lompoc, California and it triggered a discussion on the similarities to rapeseed and canola. Today, Linda and I photographed this canola crop at Paris, Idaho which I think is an interesting contrast with Chuck's mustard photo. After a little research it turns out that the three plants are in the same family but are not quite identical. This view includes Paris Peak on the left and (I think) Midnight Mountain on the right. Chuck's post is in the first comment.
