Still wandering around the farm in Stowe. This old Plow is planted in a pasture where its probably been resting since the man (or woman) who was using it left it there. Something about it just made the view there so peaceful. Thinking back of simplier days. The morning sunrising added some nice highlights that I thought would add to the interest of the photo. Hope you like it. Thanks for visiting my gallery and for your comments on my photos.

A photo with sphere! Beautiful!
Great colours!

I find the faggot on the left side a little bit disturbing.

greetings Jan

Hi Donna,,
This is a very nice tibrute to agricultural history. Very well presented my dear Donna! Nice POV and great sharpness on the subject.

Lovely Donna. Superb focus. Well composed and that lovely golden light. Well done and TFS, David

Many thanks for your comment on ‘The Gardener's Cottage’

This one was behind a rather daunting fence and the alarm looked out of place.

Hello Donna,
Seems like you found some interesting subjects South of the border too!
Rust in sunlight is one of my favourite colours...
This is a lovely composition with good sense of depth, strong diagonal adds dynamics!
Greetings,

Hi Donna, wonderful snap here. The lighting is good and the subject is well-placed, TFS. Enjoying the benefits of global warming here, hunh? I lived in MA for 5 years and we had snow up to our armpits from November through the 1st of May back in the 60's.

You composed it just right - the eye goes arround and leave by the way!:) The colours are natural and pleasant for eye. Yep, well done!

~Take care!~

Hi Donna...
Great photo.. It really looks like it was left in the middle of something!!!
I love the way you were able to keep the plow in focus but not the background... Nice little road!

Hi Donna,
looks like Vermont was full of great seneries to capture. This is wonderful, those rustic old farm tools make wonderful subjects for photography. Very well composed shot, very well focused on your main subject and excellent background.
Sky

Again, a very successful shot. I really like the blur all around the main subject.

Hello Donna!
A beautiful composition with this narrow DOF with the focus on the plow. Well seen , captured and presented!
Robert

Really like this shot, like the special lighting and muted colours you have captured here and the careful consideration of the composition and placement of the "rustic beauty" in the shot.

Thanks for sharing

Andrew
