About eleven feet wide and 25 long, the raked gravel retains moisture well and keeps the roots of douglas fir tree to the right well protected. I am no monk - I only rake about five times a year. Between rakings some leaves collect in the furrows and animal prints appear overnight.
I liked this one of the three rakes the best....so I decided to put it into my stream :) Have a great Sunday!
Oh, and another thing I like to do - well actually my wife loves to instruct me to do - is the garden!! Just thought I would (she asked me nicely) to rake up fallen petals and flowers from the last couple of days downpour of rain!

A hay rake is an agricultural rake used to collect cut hay or straw into windrows for later collection (e.g. by a baler or a loader wagon).
NO GRAPHICS AND NO INVITES TO GROUPS PLEASE!
I over-raked - didn't take the head tube angle change into consideration, so needed to loose about 8 mm of rake. This tool wasn't designed to do this. But the lunar excursion module on the Apollo 13 mission wasn't designed to get astronauts home either. A bit o' the ol' American ingenuity...
There are still a lot of leaves in the trees.

There are a few items that belonged to my grandparents that I have kept and used regularly. This rake is one of those things. I love this old metal rake, with its old wooden handle, and I prefer it to any newer rake that is stored in my garage. So I am giving this its own portrait.

Rakes Mill Pond is a dammed up pond and adjacent swamp located on the Blue Ridge Parkway in Floyd County, Virginia. A mill built in the early 19th century once stood here. It was the brainchild of Jarman Rakes who promoted business by stocking his pond with trout and letting customers fish it while he ground their wheat.

If you wonder why all those wires and loudspeakers: those rakes had microphones attached to them, so that each scratch made on different surfaces, got amplified and played through the loudspeakers. They also had other sound-producing gadgets all over their bodies, so even when they threw away the rakes, they squeaked, barked, grunted, oinked and whatnot, with every move. :-)
A trip out to The Berry Barn for lunch and then a bit of a walk about - came across this old hay rake. A bit of "processing " and sliding to get to this.
Used Prisma: Transverse Line filter - all in the iPhone. First for a Painterly effect - then used only a bit of a slide for HSS in Adobe Photoshop Elements.
For - Happy Slider Sunday - HSS!
An attempt at over-processing a picture - on purpose.
Hmm, not a broom, but it looks like it. Happy Halloween
