Here is another recent capture that I let hang around for a while. I found these examples of the good and lasting work of rain and iron oxide. Clearly, this was another day without clouding on my probable circuitous way back from a CostCo trip. I kept the sky minimized. These old rust heaps were enough to catch my attention near Teller farm on Valmont Road back to Frogmont. BoCo's White Rock open space is on the hill, left, while farming continues in the valley.
Actually, today, there are no skies nor clouds, only blank skies - and disgusting pictures. even on this summer's day. This is probably more than a make-believe farm because it looks like activity exists around training horses and riders. This prize came about after I got control of some visual distraction problems. It's interesting that they still have a farm here at all while there are prairie castles and housing all about. It's easier to grow castles around here than anything agriculture while petroleum is more important than water and food. That's a balance sheet that is already unbalanced in this fascist administration whose outgoing project trying to sell ANWAR to the highest bidders..
eDDie usually finds the barns for agricultural collections. I have passed this place any number of times. Earlier, The local weather alway says wait a few days, wait a few days for any skies. We have lately been in a maximum cheat zone. We've already waited weeks and weeks and weeks. Are we done yet?
"Macro Mondays. Rust".

For this photo I have used bullets and shells, kindly lent to me by my neighbor Félix, a survivor of the Battle of Quijorna, an adorable old man who nourishes me with stories, and with whom it is a pleasure to talk.
These bullets and casings are 84 years old and bathed in rust. I have tried to recreate with them an attack post and a trench. I hope you like it.

A photo I totally forgot about taken in Nov 23 on the shores of Crummock water. It’s nice to look back on such a bright morning in these frightening times.
