\"DSC_1525\"<\/a>\"DSC_1645\"<\/a>My neck aches from sitting in front of the computer too much. It’s all book<\/a> promotion, all the time, right now, as we lead up to the publication date. So between emails and phone calls and this and that, I don’t get up and walk around enough.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1583\"<\/a>In the afternoon, I try to do my laps around the corn field. And I did (reluctantly) help Roy clean one of the big chicken coops yesterday.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1667\"<\/a>\"DSC_1536\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Of course, I have to walk Farmer now and then. And I feed and water the hens in the small coops first thing in the morning.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1631\"<\/a>\"DSC_1670\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And, like a new mother checking on a sleeping baby, I always visit the hoop house, lift up the covers, and make sure the lettuce is still alive.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1569\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"DSC_1572\"<\/a>I use the camera as my\u00a0excuse to go outside. Not a very good excuse though, since lately the light has been dingy and the colors rather cranky and evasive.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1700\"<\/a>\"DSC_1688\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What still interests me, though, is texture and pattern.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1703\"<\/a>\"DSC_1635\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A grey day on a farm makes you look differently at the odd mish-mash of shapes and materials that lie still in the cold, waiting for the warm day they’ll be useful again (or not).<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1697\"<\/a>\"DSC_1588\"<\/a><\/p>\n

So after I took my photos this morning, I found looking at them in black and white was much more interesting than in color. (Even the birds looked cool.) So I’m posting a gallery, just for fun. I can think of any excuse to avoid work!<\/p>\n
