Here is a more traditional view of a center pivot irrigation machine. I wanted to get it with the rodeo bulls in the foreground, but they haven't returned from this week's show.

I stepped back outside to see if there was going to be a sunset and noticed the light in this hummingbird feeder.

Rick - if a damsel fly can be called cute then that one is. I had a duck once that bowed at the decisive moment. Didn't even notice until I opened up the file some days later.

Colin - lovely birthday gift for your Mum. I do like the light girls with the dark back-ground. I could be picky about the crokked horizon in #2, but it's "Be Kind to Colins" day here.

Rob! Wunderbar, dásamlegt, gwych - take them all, this image is worth a thousand words, but I won't bore you with details.
PS "Blacksheep" is very funny in a bloody sort of way.

James - very subtle use of a certain process that shall go un-named.

Hi Kit,

Thanks for the kind words. I haven't given a copy to my Mum because she always "complains" that there's nowhere to put it! Re: The uneven horizon ... It also gives my daughter a bit of a lean, which I felt was more "candid". Correcting it would have made the shot less formal, so I decided to leave it the way it was.
