Newly ploughed.

I wasn't in the mood to get up this morning. Everything seemed pointless. However, once up, I dusted upstairs, cleaned the bedroom window and set Roomba going, all of which I've been putting off for a week at least. By then the sun was shining so I went into the garden, planted seeds and cleared more of the borders. My cherry tree was humming with bees and Beaky was singing at the top of his voice in the crab apple.
Round about four o'clock I went to my favourite location between Strathmiglo and Gateside to photograph fields. There are two good lay-by's on the main road and I photographed newly ploughed fields from one. Returned along a back road from Gateside and noted another shot then stopped in Strath and walked along the river Eden. Discovered that the tree in the car park is full of pollen laden catkins and along the river butterbur was growing. So guess where I plan to go tomorrow.

I like this, so well composed, all the rising and falling of the land and the lines of the plough all come together nicely. Well worth getting up for Jean. A good weekend for you and stay safe.

Well delineated bands that help the eyes (mine, at least) grasp the view more quickly.

Terrific composition Jean. Love the strong colours and contrasts, highlighting the textures and rolling waves of the rich Fife soil. The two cottages are a perfect focal point and the curtain of larch and other trees make a great curtain forming the backdrop.

Beautiful rich colours and the ploughing certainly emphasises the contours. A lovely image.
