For some reason, these are coming out on Flickr much more washed out than the originals...

At work at an Oddwheels vintage working day at Hail Weston, Cambs.

A first for me, this female Stubble Quail was one of the other interesting species found while spotlighting for the Plains Wanderer. (Before anyone comments, I've seen quite a few quail by flushing including some I've been told are Stubble Quail, but never got a view that was enough for me to identify or learn from, so they don't count).

It's beard time. It's also peanut butter jelly time.

Stubble in the fields

Cancer men are very much the ladies' men, and this even applies to their appearance. They have soft features and have a sort of "prince charming," look about them. They tend to have more round face shapes and most pull off the slight stubble look very well. Their boyish grins are one of their most endearing qualities. Like their female counterparts, Cancerian men sometimes will avoid eye contact, and if you're lucky enough to hold your gaze, you'll see that their eyes show every emotion. They may turn red (or even purple) if their classic "loony" laugh kicks in. Cancer men can be quite the clowns.

Wheat stubble field near SW Wren Rd, Washington County, North of Hillsboro, OR. July 2015. Access permission granted by property owner.

Such a lovely warm and sunny afternoon we walked along the lane to the organic farm shop at Whatcroft for a coffee al fresco with a fantastic view of fields , cows, sheep, goats and pea hens?

ZZ Top i aint never gunna be. I hate being unshaven. stiff hair on my face busts up my skin pretty bad. This is the main aspect of homelessness that i cant deal with. I arrived at Kernow's squat lookin pretty bad.

Case STX440 Quadtrac + Gregoire Besson Discordon cultivator.

(Abbotsley, 13/8/13)

Seen whilst I was on bike ride, so pocket camera.

Even as I was leaving, tractor arrived to cart them away. I would have liked to have spent more time but with dslr and wide angle lens. Very few round bales this year, most are rectangular. Why is this ?

Got that?

A snow covered field in southern New Brunswick.

Safflower, a warm season broadleaf, known for its deep taproot and ability to pull nutrients up from deeper soil. There is also good standing stubble in this field. Dan Buerkle practices the soil health principles on both rangeland and cropland. B&B Farms, Fallon County, MT. June 2021.

This image gives the impression that I was above the geese when I took the shot.

First attempts at a self portrait with lighting

Strobist info: Vivitar 285 shoot through umbrella 1/16 camera right

slightly off frame I know, wife was away so had to guess the focus, zoom and framing, set the timer then run back and see what I got!

I actually don't recall taking this shot, but I like how it turned out :)
