View over the field of hay (waiting to be small baled into flat eights - see shot in comments) with the wind turbine against some cracking clouds at Glynde.
A time to remember all those who have lost their lives or friends and families in all the many wars and conflicts around the world.
Progressive Field, Home of the Cleveland Indians, with a surprise sunset reflecting off of the cloud cover. Out of 30 MLB ballparks, this is the 23rd ballpark that I photographed. (_DSC4724A)
It was pouring rain when took this shot. I was standing under an unbrella hoping not to get soaked but could not pass this field up. I was thinking I would see lots of fireweed but guess it dosen't bloom until July.

Until I saw this photo, it had never occurred to me that there could be such a thing as a foot-operated plow.
Despite the farmer's winning smile, I imagine this form of plowing must have been difficult and tiring.
I wonder whether this plow was used to supplement work done by oxen pulling plows, or whether it was limited to farmers who were too poor to afford an ox to plow their fields.
This photo is from an album Elstner Hilton compiled in Japan between 1914 and 1918. Elstner was my spouse's uncle.
While Uncle Elstner sometimes annotated photos that required an explanation, he never dated the pictures. So all we know is they were taken between January, 1914 and December, 1918.
The plow in this photo looks like it hasn't seen much use.
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
By Lt-Col. John McCrae, Canadian Expeditionary Force, WW1.
I was introduced to the poetry of Wilfred Owen, perhaps the best known of the Great War's poets - by an English teacher who was one of those exceptional presenters of his subject who manage to - without apparent effort - immediately command the respect of even unruly classes of youngsters.
He was James McKay, of Dunfermline High School. I didn't become a convert to poetry generally, but to that of only a few writers. I regret in these latter years of my life that I haven't read more of it, but the seeds Mr McKay sowed all those decades past haven't expired just yet. It was under his guidance that I learned to love this mongrel language of ours, and to cherish its marvels and its wonderful effectiveness in the conveyance of the smallest nuance of inference.

About
From the vault.
Taken in Warwick, a long long time ago.
Well, at least one part of the image is from Warwick. The Clouds come from my 'cloud stock library' I've not tried this before, so I thought I'd give it a go, its simple really.
The trick is to use shots taken from a similar angle and shooting conditions etc.
Did you pick it?
Would you know if I didn't tell you?
Enjoy.
- Canon 400D (taken before the upgrade)
- ISO 100, f13, 1/125, 20mm.
- Sigma 10-20 lens
Processing
- Layer masking using two images.
- Blended one of my stock cloud shots with a shot of these fields.
Music
"Strawberry Fields Forever" is a song by the English rock band The Beatles. Recorded at the end of 1966, the song was written by John Lennon during the filming of How I Won The War and is formally credited to the Lennon/McCartney songwriting team. It is named after a Salvation Army house in Beaconsfield Road, Woolton, Liverpool where Lennon played as a child.
The Flower?
Apparently its is a weed, more info here.
