Phish - Farmhouse

Welcome this is a Farmhouse
we have cluster flies alas
And this time of year is bad
We are so very sorry,
There is little we can do
But swat them

She didn't beg oh, not enough
She didn't stay when things got tough
I told a lie and she got mad
She wasn't there when things got bad

I never ever saw the northern lights
I never really heard of cluster flies
Never ever saw the stars so bright
In the farmhouse things will be alright

Woke this morning to the stinging lash
Every man rise from the ash
Each betrayal begins with trust
Every man returns to dust

You can find the song on youtube here.


Note on photograph:
Taken on the slopes around Brastagi when I was there with Martine and Rob.

Another good title would perhaps have been 'puppy paw magnets', since
Rob was attrackting puppies.
Well, we all were. We were like puppy magnets.

Hoi Dennis,
Uitstekende artistieke weergave van dit landschap. Mooie lijnen perfect vastgelegd. Dit is ook bijzonder Azie!
Hans

Not sure what I am looking at, but the lines are a very interesting aspect of this landscape.

Hi Dennis,

Hypnotizing capture... :] Great composition with lines and shed. Natural colours and lighting works well. Good work & TFS :]

Greetings from Poland,

Hi Dennis, great graphic effect of lines, good light and colours too. Well done!
Ciao, Cinzia

Hi Dennis,

I like all of the repetitive lines of green, white, and browns... very interesting photo. I also like the placement of the structure to add, yet another interesting element to the photo.

thanks for sharing this great photo of your travels.

hello Dennis,
a perfect and geometrical visual.
I think they be plantations of the on the hills of Sumatra..

cheers sERGIO

Good composition, placement of the 'house' is perfect and the lines of the ground sheeting work well across the frame.

Hi Dennis,
What a striking composition! You use the plastic rows for an interesting study on graphical image. Very efficient use of the lines. Really a wonderful image. Bravo! Annie

I like this shot for the parallel lines, I posted a similar shot from Ireland here before, thanks for post.

Hi Dennis

Impressive abstract effect you have captured in this posting.

Well done, TFS,

Hi Dennis,

Ziet er prachtig uit dit lijnenspel, daar is heel wat plastic in gaan zitten - maakt de thumbnail erg in het oog springend.

Nice cultural shot and amuzing poem. Diagonals are great. According to your WS photos you were not trekking difficult terrain -- well at least your clothing did not suggest that. Where were you walking between? TFS. K2

very nice lines...an interesting good composition..TFS..

Hi Dennis,
This is an image to be envied. The POV is great and I especially like the oblique pattern of the rows. The inclusion of the 'shed' type bulding only enhances the quirky patterns of controlling nature.
Lovely stuff.
Best wishes,
Celina

Hi Dennis
Very interesting shot with all those parallel lines of plastic ribbons. I don't what they grow there but the place is well gromed.I uppose thos plastic strips are there to keek weeds from growing.
Nice capture
