One of the many feed troughs on the lot. The far end of the trough is where the hay loft is located and dumped into the end feeding area, the trough in front of the camera is where the feed from the feeder came din and was dumped into the trough via an auger in the pipe that runs lengthwise. Feed lot unused since the 80's. Location not disclosed at owners request.

Trough Barn can be seen in the valley just infront of Crag Wood, the heather covered ridge of Hareden Nab is just catching a shaft of light.

Colorado has many gold medal rivers and my hubby was thirsty to try them all. Especially the Taylor River. This was a must and #1 on his list for this state. He had done his research, knew where to drive to, and what stretch of river to target. He was pumped!
We arrived early the first morning, seeing only 2 other fishers on the water. Soon more arrived, and so did the weather, but we claimed our 'spots' and it paid off for hubby. After 5 hours and thru downpours and thunder he landed 3 gorgeous brown trout in about 45 mins. I had moved downstream by then, but within camera shot. (pics to follow tomorrow).
But these shots were taken on the 2nd day we fished the fabled 'Hog Trough' on the Taylor River. As you can well image, hubby was bouncing and itching it get back up there, to 'his' spot. Happy he was, to claim his domain and hopeful to land a fish or two. We started noticing some of the same faces as day one. I felt like shouting out 'places everyone, please find your seats', as the ritual began. One fellow was quite the talker, he would shout out to his buddies up and downstream whenever a fish would sniff his offering. Animated and excited, but no luck. No one was catching. My quiet hubby just zoned into fishing. We each must have gone through 25 flies, new leaders, extra flotant, and cast after cast to perfect a drag free drift. Nothing.
Until... Zzzzzzzzing! That wonderful sound of the reel screaming off into the distance, and a nice bend in the rod...Fish On!!
Ok, here's where it gets fun. Luckily I'm fishing beside hubby and as I trade my rod for my camera I notice the river has gone quiet. All other lines are in and eyes on hubby, including a crowd that has gathered on the bridge nearby. Someone is videoing, another is explaining what's going on, but all are watching with great interest and hope to see that fish! Hubby is zoned and concentrating on landing that big fish...that beautiful big rainbow trout!! I'm clicking away, seeing more people arrive on the bridge and smiling because hubby definitely has an audience. And like any successful and great performance (ok, I am a little biased here), appreciation is given via a clap. Yes someone on the bridge was clapping away, another still videoing, thumbs up and smiles all around. But none bigger than my hubby's. What a prize catch.
Released, that rainbow swam away strong, and hubby released a large brown soon after. The Hog Trough lived up to it's name, my humble hubby is one happy KingFisher, and I was excited to capture his performance.
Meeting some of our new neighbours and getting the idea that this particular one, wasnt sharing anything...ever! :/
Nothing dramatic or grandiose here...just a simple comp.
Sometimes I have a tendency to want to continually outdo myself in my hobbies until I the stress of outperforming overtakes the enjoyment. Every now and then I need to just pull back, relax, and realize...the remarkable conditions and magic captures will come in their own sweet time. Until then, I will bide my time enjoying the small beauties.

I have been passing by this object for a long time, trying now and then to get the picture right. I think I did it this time.
Well it is the silly season :-)
Had a burst of energy and walked the dogs to Cisco's paddock.
40 mins one way + the WA heat + the middle of the day = 2 dogs in a trough.
They stayed in there for a good 20 mins until i kicked them out to clean it.
Bonnie is such a character. I can't believe she squeezed Rottie butt into such a small space.
Lightbox and more in comments of course..........
Parabolic trough collectors concentrate the sun's energy on an oil- filled tube running along the focal line of the parabolically shaped trough.

GWL260: Animal trough, Metropolitan Drinking Fountain and Cattle Trough Association, corner of Christchurch Hill and Willow Road, Hampstead, Borough of Camden, NW3.
This Grade II Listed horse trough dates to the 1800s with the water being supplied by a nearby water reservoir in Dark Lane. Photos of a project by local children are displayed around the village as a celebration of the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee. Thorverton, Devon.
The Trough of Bowland is one of the most beautiful places in Lancashire. The road is a little challenging but not too badd and who would want to rush through this amazing landscape.

The sheer delight on Bella's face whenever she is in that darn trough makes my day.
It is like her very own retreat, she sits in the water and will rest her head on the edge and nap....

This old stone trough initially caught my attention when I was wandering around this field. It seemed natural to include the rising sun as the other focal point, as it had just popped up above the trees in the distance. Hopefully, you get a feeling of three-dimensionality from this. Often, pictures can feel quite flat, so I composed deliberately to try to get around this and show some depth in the image. I managed to get a lot of different pictures on the morning that I shot this one. All of them are at least slightly different, so I think this turned out to be one of my more successful photographic days.
