Description
This is a picture of a neighbor's cattle as they wander back toward home in the late afternoon. They looked so peaceful, stopping to graze, switching their tails, meandering.
Our little, family-owned farms are disappearing at an alarming rate. I'm dedicating this image to them.
A texture from Belle Fleur is used to enhance the photo.

Hi, Marilyn:>) What fun to have grown up on a farm! Things seem more orderly and less complicated when the rhythm of the day is dictated by the natural world. Thank you for the nice comment and the V/F!

Carol Senske replied:
I really wanted people to sense the un-rushed, peaceful pace of things. Family farms are hard work, but they do bring folks close to nature and the cycles of our natural environment. Thank you for getting that sense of peace from the picture; thank you for the insight, the visit, the comment, and the V/F - very much appreciated:>)

This is a masterpiece Carol - looks like a classic impressionist work of art. Gorgeous texture and beautiful pastoral composition. I'm a country girl too so I really appreciate your commentary as well. F/V Tw.
