This week's Big Excitement for me ! My first excursion with my newly delivered camera took me to our nearest field and it was being harvested. A combine harvester - Oh JOY ! You can see the dust it's kicking up over there on the right near the trees. The driver saw me taking photos and kindly drove down the field again and right past me, smiled and gave me a 'thumbs up'. Isn't it wonderful when people are so kind? Made my day ! (That may be my next upload).
The clouds were beautiful and I loved the lines the newly cut stubble made, so I painted this scene in Topaz Impression 2. I do hope you like it !
As always, thank you so much for your comments, faves or for just looking. Happy weekend to you all ... I hope you find similar kindness and friendliness in everyone you meet.
YOUR kindness has meant this image reached Explore number 79 on 13 August 2016 - thank you all so very much !

A beard and mustache trimmer in action. The trimmer is similar to hair clippers commonly used by hairstylists, but with a finer-toothed cutter assembly and, instead of a vibrating electromagnetic drive in older models, a motor using a cam pin to smoothly convert rotary motion into the cutter's oscillating motion.
The cutter assembly is one inch (25.4mm) wide.
Volvopluteus gloiocephalus, commonly known as Stubble Rosegill, is a species of mushroom in the family Pluteaceae. It is a large mushroom found in nutrient rich, often disturbed habitats. It has a shiny skin and a radish-like smell. This example was found on Bredon Hill, Worcestershire.
A quick snap from last night - just rotated the camera head around as I was waiting for the storm to move into the scene

Somewhere 70km North of Deniliquin - NSW
Austrália
After the excitement of the photo session with the Plain-wanderers, Philip still wanted to treat us to a few more special sightings.
Bob (nw_birder), our friendly companion for the day, sometimes translator and sometimes even a guide, was kindly concerned about our tight schedule. We needed to get back to Deniliquin, sleep a few hours, and head to Melbourne with some extra time to handle any unexpected issues.
But since we were so excited, we happily thanked Bob, appreciated his concerns, and said yes, continuing into the night.
This was one of the extra gifts we got!

When we were travelling back to Wales from the Dolomites, we stayed for a couple of nights in the Champagne region of France. The vast cereal fields were all bing harvested so there were lovely lines of stubble. We borrowed a brown leather hat from the Airbnb, and went out to take some fun portraits in the late evening sun. When we arrived at a war grave site , Maura said where's the hat? We quickly realised we must have left it on the car roof when we left the last location a few miles away. Rushing back , we saw a car ahead stop, a man get out, pick up the hat and speed off ! I had to follow him with flashing lights and horn , while Maura had arms out of the window gesticulating. this just seemed to make him drive quicker, so a frantic car chase ensued through the Champagne backroads. It was like one of those cop car chases on tv. Eventually he realised we weren't going to stop chasing him , so slowed down, rolled down the window, and said '" is this yours?" . A bizarre but true story . All this way for the short ride is by Tom Russell. I sold another two driftwood photos this morning so I'm off to look for Marsh Fritillaries to celebrate.

It don't matter what we do
We keep running back to yesterday
It don't matter who we see
Or how far we go without what we need
I know without you I'm the desert with no pouring rain
If we play the game
We can't win together, no
And if someone else is touchin' you right now
Let me tell you, babe
But you're always on my mind
Yeah, yeah
You're always on my mind
