While we wait for the ground to dry out and harvest to kick into high gear I’ve been using my new camera (the old one was dropped one too many times!) to capture the beauty in my own front yard.
As we drove to church yesterday I noticed the balconies on a set of apartment buildings. Small platforms, maybe 4 x 6 feet where families store a bicycle or two, maybe a potted plant.
Making me very grateful.
Farming is more than a career.
It’s a lifestyle.
And a pretty amazing one at that.
“Baby” chicks, almost grown!
Red Delicious apples
Abundant spring rains have been good for my roses!
Hoping to harvest a couple of peaches.
Beans coming up through the rye grass
Last night’s beautiful sunset!
These are a few of my favorite pics I snapped during harvest season this year. l.eave me a message and tell me which is your favorite!
It’s the time of year of State Fairs! This farm photograph was on display at the Missouri Farm Bureau building at the State Fair. It won 1st prize in the “animals” category, but I think you’ll agree the little girl in it is priceless as well.
Photography is one of my favorite types of art, and on the farm we have so many beautiful things to take pictures of! Great photographs need great lighting as well, which makes the outdoors the best place for taking pictures. Take your camera outside and see what you can come up with!
